Sort of tangenting from the topic, I've been shooting blind quite a lot lately -
not looking through the viewfinder in the case of the Horizon, or looking
through a blacked out viewfinder when using an R72 filter.

It surprises me, when I feel like I'm holding the camera horizontal, how wildly
off kilter I can be. It makes me wonder - wonder that I can walk upright at all.
