That's it Garry, it is a contortionist's game ;-) I suppose it merely takes a bit of practice, but there is a lot to get used to with digital cameras.

Why I'll never go Digital. I'd have to give up my honed camera holding
skills and become the performer- instead of the spectator.

Yesterday, during an awards ceremony, I once again silently laughed as I
watch the photographer do the "Digital Wiggle". That spread eagle
semi-squat stance. The camera 18 inches from his face to see the LCD screen on the back. The little hop trot as he moved back and forth to fit everyone on the screen- even though he has a zoom. The desperate weave to hold the camera steady as the camera went through it electro-mechanical gyrations
before exposure.

Almost as ridiculous as me trying not to burst out in a boisterous guffaw
of embarrassment .
