Interestingly, the picture Ken Rockwell used to have on the front page of his website showed him using a prototype left-eyed camera nikon sent him to play with at one point. Never made it to market, of course.

Actually I don't want to change any control locations. I am right handed, just left eye dominant. Read a couple of threads where people said they felt they could focus better when there face was scrunched up to the camera body. What I envisioned would allow you to place your eye to the eyecup easier. I'm trying to find a side shot of a slr to edit so I can show approx what I mean. Guess I'd better get that k20 so I can take a pic of my K10
You could always shoot with a battery grip and rotate the camera 90 degrees clockwise.

Just think, a whole new dimension, using 100% vertical camera shots

What about upside down?

Ok, I've had my fun at your expense, I'll stop now.
