Although the pics weren't as nice as many that you've done, I wouldn't have 
necessarily noticed the harsh lighting if I didn't know the pictures were 
taken by a skilled photographer. I think you did a good job of dealing with 
it!

I'll bet you're right eyed. Most of the L-brackets seem to be designed for 
right hand on top perhaps partly because that puts the camera to the right 
of a person's right eye. I'm left eyed and much prefer the right hand on 
bottom.

Have you started forming opinions about the Tokina? The C*non user who 
helped fuel the run on Zuikos has some opinions on the Tamron 28-75mm f2.8 
but I haven't found any reviews of the Tokina by anyone I am at alll 
familiar with.

If you found any good reviews of the Tokina I would appreciate a link to 
them.
TIA,
