Question Left Handed Digi Camera's???

Anyone know a site with images or lists of Digital Camera's with the Shutter button on the LEFT (not Right)

I would like 2MP+ & under £200 with Flash for indoor use.

Any ideas? I looked on Google but cant see anything?

Thanks

Re: Left Handed Digi Camera's???

The Panasonic SV-as10 is a rather wierd looking 2MP camera and has shutter release buttons on both sides (one on the right hand side, and one on the left hand side of the back).

Might be what you want.

http://www.panasonic.co.uk/dsnap/svas10/index.htm

Panasonic list it's price at £250, so a bit above your price range.

http://www.bestcameras.co.uk have the older, as3 at £150 though. I don't know if this has the shutter release on both sides.

Re: Left Handed Digi Camera's???

As you have to hold the camera with both hands i dont find that using the right hand for the shutter button a problem. In fact i prefer to hold the telephoto lense with the left hand as it makes it more stable for me.

Re: Left Handed Digi Camera's???

You could always use a tripod or a monopod?

Nope its not a "Want" its a "NEED"

I use my Feet to do everything. Being Disabled I have to have the Shutter button on the LEFT (I hold Camera with foot but need button on left for my hand)

I am currently using a Archos AV380 + AV300 Camera

(Front View) From Rear Button on LEFT (Above the Flash)

Going to miss the 80GB Memory card this Beauty has But Quality in Day with Flash is CREPE

So any other Recomendations? One with a Remote Controll would be OK

Re: Left Handed Digi Camera's???

The Cannon IR remote control is very good, but does not work on all their compact camera range. It does not work on my A80 for example, so check before you buy. Most cannons respond to the the same remote commands and by buying the more advanced remote you can get one with a switch for off / 0 delay (great for what you want, equivilant to a cable push arrangement of old) / 2 second delay for if you are in front of the camera.

Cannon image systems are fantastic and a 128Mb card is cheap as chips (boom boom) these days, though for a 4MP camera I would recommend a 256 card as that gives you plenty of room.

Re: Left Handed Digi Camera's???

A remote was supplied with my Olympus mju410 a year ago. That's proven to be a great little camera. Shutter button is on the right side though, and don't know if the camera would be too small or fiddly for you to grip comfortably, especially with the sliding lens cover on the front.

Re: Left Handed Digi Camera's???

The Canon Powershot S1 IS supports a wireless remote:

http://www.cameras2u.com/products/de...UCT=9179A007AA
(remote is down list on RHS)
http://www.canon.co.uk/for_home/prod...1_is/index.asp
http://www.steves-digicams.com/2004_reviews/s1is.html
http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canons1is/
http://images.google.co.uk/images?q=wl-dc100&hl=en

It is being replaced by the S2 very shortly (which apparently DOESN'T support the remote) so look out for some bargains.

Looking at the Canon site, the WL-DC100 remote control appears to support the EOS300D and the PowerShots S70, S60, G6, S1-IS and Pro-1.

That's 400 without a lens Mine was 500 with an 18-55mm but WELL worth it, I'd never use a cruddy compact again.

The Canon wireless remote also comes with the G5 and supports the Powershot Pro 90, S60, S70, G5 & G6

I wouldn't bother, I had enough to get either a Nikon D70, EOS 300D or EOS 350D, the D70 suffered from slight colour representation and abberation problems, the 350D with it's extra 2mp has introduced a slight (barely noticeable mind) noise factor into it's shots but the 300D has the same innards as a 10D and you can put hacked firmware on it to get all the 10D features, plus you save 100-200 quid which you can put towards a decent USM lens.
