How do YOU hold your camera?

Left hand under lens, right on the shutter...  how else would you hold it? 
My husband turns his clockwise for vertical shots.  I turn mine counter clockwise.  Acutally that's the only way I could tell whose shots were whose when we both had the same brand of camera. 

Right hand holding camera, left hand with thumb under lens and other fingers on top of lens (picture the letter C )

Mine just floats in front of my face... that way I don't get any shake from my hands, and it makes panning soooo much easier.  You have to have special powers like me though, in order to get something to float in front of you like that.

OK, so my camera doesn't actually float, but I do have magical powers .  I stole them from Bob!

I hold mine with my left hand under the lens when hand-holding, and I'm going to try the hand over the lens with the tripod.  I keep my elbows in against my sides, unless I have something to brace them on.  I truly do the whole let-your-breath-out-and-hold-it thing too.  I don't think about it, but if I do a series of continuous photos I notice because I have to inhale when I'm done.  Just like shooting..., exhale, hold, squeeze, follow through.  My favorite thing to watch with photographers is our smashed noses.   You'd think in today's world of technology, they could design a camera with enough relief that the viewfinder would be slightly out so your nose wasn't flat and crooked after a wedding!

LOL, Travis has "The Force".

I don't have a nose problem...  I do have a problem with my ring finger on my left hand, just from how I hold the lens, I have to keep my nails short, or they get in the way.  Travis, I think I showed you that at the wedding by Cherry Hills.

Im still trying to get comfy. Aparently I have developed bad camera holding habits that I am trying to break. Keeping my left hand under the lens feels awkward but Im trying.
Building up new muscles too cause this new camera is hefty.
I always turn clockwise too.  If for some random reason I turn the other way, I have to teach myself how to rotate it in PS all over again.
Such a creature of habit.

Serious?  That's kind of funny to me... sorry .  You must be left eye dominant, I'm guessing.  If that's the case, wouldn't you have the same problem with all the cameras?

Hey, maybe you can use it to your advantage... just learn to position your nose so it sets the focus point on the right spot for you every time you look through your viewfinder .

Haha...my belt buckle keeps changing the ISO when the camera hangs from my neck.
