...So if we are able to spin dials, turn knobs and reset buttons easier with our right dominant hands, why is that hand tied up grabbing the grip? Wouldn't it make sense for manufacturers to offer an add-on hand grip that attaches to the left side of the camera instead? You can now hold the camera with your left hand instead, and make all
your adjustments with your dominant right hand.
You make a great point. When I use a flash holder/bracket that has a left hand grip I really appreciate the experience. The camera can be held more steadily, and the right hand can do its thing more easily. There are drawbacks, of course...bulk, the need to use both hands...a mixed blessing. I can picture a compact add-on left side grip, just a bit of a bulge really, that screws into the tripod mount on the bottom. You could still shoot right handed only, or use both. It could be very light weight. Bulk would increase, but it might be a good idea. Hmmmmm
