Chris:

I recently noticed the same thing myself.  To solve this I purchased an
XA and am eager to see the results.  I suspect that a small investment
in a P&S will help you grab the shots you need with the least amount of
wrist strain.  After all, for the "serious" work you use a tripod, no!?

Dear Folks,

I realised with a shock the other day that all the prints I've put on =
the wall of my office are portrait orientation.

So, I went back to my contact sheets and counted up the numbers of =
portrait and landscape shots I've taken since starting to do BandW back
=
in February.

To my surprise 60% are portrait.

The question is:

a)      Is this curable?
b)      Should I seek a cure?
c)      Should I buy a Pen FT?

If c) then:

a)      Will I carry on taking portrait shots, but suffer less wrist
ache?
b)      Start taking 600rizontal shots?
c)      Be too confused to take any photos?

Worried of Malvern
