Which eye you are using when you taking photos?

How do I look when taking a photo?

[ravncat]

I use both eyes, and compose before I bring the camera to my eye, when im not being sloppy

Hmm i am looking for a camera with 2 viewfinder..

I'm right handed but when looking through the viewfinder I use my left eye... I'm wondering now if left-handed people use their right eye, or doesn't it work like that?

I guess the majority of people use their left eye as most cameras have the viewfinder positioned more to the left of the camera.

I think it depends on the dominant eye. I am right handed, and I have always used my right eye through the viewfinder. I've tried switching it up, and it just feels unnatural.

Does "Third Eye" count as an answer?

Me too, right handed but right eye to look into the view finder, someone said, I should use both eyes, but cannot get used to it.

It depends on what focal length I am using and what I am shooting, honestly. When I use a 50mm, or whenever I'm shooting action shots of dog sports or something, I use both eyes (left eye in viewfinder, right eye looking around keeping track of subject.) But if I do people/animal shots when they are still, I use only my left eye, since it's my dominant one.

Yes.. Many Chinese Gods have 3rd eye... They see things that other people can't see..

Hmmm... I don't think it works like that. I'm left-handed and mostly use my left eye. I've tried switching to my right, but it feels really awkward.
