Her old instamatic had a lens that protuded quite a bit, so you noticed if your fingers bumped into it. But her newer 35mm had an inset lens, and since the viewfinder didn't see through the lens she had no hint that she was covering the lens. We kept stirring her by saying we'd print an enlargement of her finger and frame it, one day. Quite why she never learnt to hold the camera in a better fashion eludes me. Since I had a manual SLR, my stance was to hold the lens with the left hand for quick adjustments and the camera body and trigger in my right hand. I may be old, now, but I can still do shake-free hand-held video on my phone without using image stabilising. The modern equivalent is people taking photos of their ear while talking on their mobile phone. -- NB: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
