1. do you use your left or right eye to compose through the viewfinder?
2. you right or left handed?

on a personal level, I use my left eye and I'm right handed.
I felt that my right eye has a "cooler" colour and my left eye has a "warmer" colour viewing.... weird...

Oh, definitely my right. My left eye is way weaker than my right is.

I'm right handed and use my left eye. I think I use my left because I can't close one eye and not the other. When putting my left eye to the viewfinder I can keep my right eye open and the camera body blocks light getting to it, so I can see the viewfinder image clearly. If I try to compose using my right eye, I can still see a ghost image from my left eye since the camera body doesn't block it.

right right

side note: how many people actually had to hold their camera up to their face to answer? I did. :/

Well if you are left handed you still have to use your right hand to take pics...haven't seen any cameras with the button on the left side...I'm right/right though

I use my brain to compose, but I look through the viewfinder with my right eye becouse I find it easier to close my left eye...

Left eye dominant
Hold camera right handed
Shoot Guns left handed (I do NOT hunt animals, I was on a rifle team)
Write right handed
Shoot a Bow left handed even though my right is stronger.
Hit baseball/softball right and left handed
Throw right handed (Fastest pitch recored 89 mph, weak!)
Boxing (when I use to box) Right but could go lefty.
Catch left handed
Kick left footed (longest field goal 42 yards)

I'm all mixed up!

Left eye, right handed. My right eye is incredibly weak compared to my left eye.

Oh, and most of the time I don't look through the viewfinder when I shoot anyway. Either I use the LCD screen (and soak up my batteries) or I just point the camera in a general direction and push the butan.

you guys use your eyes?

Looks like you were given excessive amounts of ambidextrose when you were a baby. Can you eat or paint (or eat paint for that matter) with your feet?

LOL - no but if I try to right left handed, I can right backwards. :)

Rught-handed, right eye. For fast happening action, left eye stays open to give me a wide-angled situational view

Right-handed, use my right eye.

Like one of the earlier posters, I've noticed a slight colour temperature difference between my eyes.

That would be me.
The colour temperature difference is quite apparent actually :)

I think cameras are designed for right-handed and right-eyed.

I'm left-handed and left-eyed and always press buttons with my nose, very anoying.
