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. D
