Hey guys! Just thought of a really random (but hopefully relevant) question here. I'm curious about how the general SLR society mount their lenses onto their bodies. I know I always mount my lenses to the camera (just because I don't own any long telephoto lenses), but I know a few shooters who insist on twisting their body on any lens to mount.

So, here are the poll choices:
- Mount lens to camera (twist lens to fit)
- Mount camera to lens (twist camera to fit)
- Depends on factors (Size of lens, Size of cam body, which mounted to tripod etc)

Hope we can have a weird discussion here! haha~
 

Option 1 = i rather drop the lens than the body

Option 2 = i rather drop the body than the lens
 

I always tend hold the lens with right hand and body with left. since my right hand is the active one, I always twist the lens.
 

For mounted lenses obviously turn the body lor. Else i always screw the lens on, maybe because more tactile feedback.

Big tele lens, mount it on tripod, fix the body to the lens......
 

I am twisting lens to body since the lenses I owned or pretty light. :)
 

who is paul yeo?!!?:>
 

i usually twist lens to fit
Mounting camera to lens probably for the godzilla lens :p
 

The next poll will be "Do you press the shutter release button into the body or press the body into the button" hohoho
 

Next time... To remove lens cap! Twist cap or lens :bsmilie:
