[OM] Ergonomics - I must be a bit weird

I've never really had any problem with holding a camera in portrait
format, film or digital, so the extra release button & dials on the
new HLD-4 seemed like something I'd be unlikely to use.  I've also
found previous Oly digitals to fit quite nicely, with easy access to
controls, but the E-3 still feels a bit awkward.  In fact, I find it
easier to handle (without HLD-4) in portrait orientation.  So I tried
using the HLD-4 controls and they just don't feel right... can't seem
to find the buttons or the wheels.  Then I had an idea.... and this is
the weird bit.... the HLD-4 controls fall to hand (finger?) very
nicely in landscape orientation...... with the camera upside down!

Is it just me?
