I'm right handed.. meaning that my left eye is dominant, right? | 5D Mk. II | 24-105L | Manfrotto 190XB/498RC2 |

With that being said, I use my right eye. ![]() No, they are independent, like your dominant hand. You could be any combination, sorry for the confusion.

kb9tdj Senior Member More info | May 14, 2010 13:14 | #14 I normally use my right eye, but about 7 weeks ago I got this massive dark floater right in the center of vision in my right eye which blocks my vision as it moves. So I have had to become left-eyed until it breaks away and drifts down inside my eyeball. It's a pain since I usually keep both eyes open and would use my left eye to watch the sports action while keeping my right eye to the viewfinder so I'm always ready to shoot. Scott
