which eye you use for the viewfinder

Mar 22, 2005

this is my first slr camera so i just started shooting using the viewfinder. this might sound like a stupid question but i am curious, do u use your left or right eye to look at the viewfinder? i never really pay attention to this but from memory it seems like everyone use their right eye and the camera covering only half there face. but i find i am more comfortable using my left eye but then the camera covers my whole face. does it make a difference?
