Re: Corner viewfinder only useful for right eye shooters

This works only for those shooting with the right eye. I use my left eye. Don't know whether that's uncommon - I am also left handed.

Martin,  I am also "afflicted" with being left handed and left eye dominant.  That has presented a problem. First, I started shooting with Leica M cameras in1968. They are wonderful for the right eyed. Secondly, I worked at a TV station when I was a teenager. Sometimes I shot news film with the Auricon 16mm sound on film camera. The viewfinder is snugged up on the left, there's just no way to look through it with your right eye.  I had to train myself to be able to shoot right eyed.  I still use my right eye when shooting with my X-E cameras.
