Mine turns both ways... I guess you mean changing the numbers on it...? I
suppose you could tape over then and then write on them.
I find it really distracting when try to use a Nik*n or P*ntax and the focus
turns 'backwards', but I think it is just what you get used to. Might have
something to do with right-handedness v/s left-handedness... or maybe
languages that read left-to-right v/s right-to-left or vertically? Or I
suppose it could be a machine-shop thing, easier to turn a right-thread than
a left-thread...?
