Is the shield meant to be held in the right hand? (As Link holds it) and if not, does the handle and strap lend itself to being altered?

The shield handle set up that comes with it actually is meant to be held in your left hand. (Its a pretty sucky handle set up anyway, so if you can manage your own set up i would go with that instead. I went to a friend of mine that does a materials shop class, so he had some pieces for a drill to re-drill the holes so that it would be meant for the right hand. Unfortunately the shield is basically made out of fiberglass, so it is pretty precarious to drill into and he told me he was lucky that the whole thing didn't crack. The shield is part without the decorative shapes is pretty thin too, so on one hole he actually drilled all the way through and I put putty on the inside and repainted the spot in order to fix it up again.

I'm not a lefty but I don't see why it wouldn't work either way. It's a sling and attaches to the tripod socket so it doesn't matter what shoulder you sling it over.

Theres a little tab in the sheath that applys preasure to the blade however its not enough to hold it when its upside down. A mod is probably your best bet if you want your blade to remain held with out the safety strap. Are you planning to put it on your shoulder?

It feels somewhere in the middle. I loaded mine with most of the weights and it feels a lot better. My problem is that the shape and feel of it in my hand is wrong, its shaped more for the left hand than the right. It's sort of awkward.

You can adjust the shoulder straps and that moves the back strap. I gave read reviews where people had difficulty reaching the back strap, but so far I haven't had a problem. It's a little awkward but I love this ergo and make it work

It just getting some used to. I usually just hook up to one side and feels plenty secure with my camera. When I need to pull it up to shoot, I can use one hand to hold my camera and the free hand to release the catch and extend the strap.

Both ends of the strap attach 2 the same place, I know, kinda wierd, but it works, I mostly carry it around by the handle.

No...my husband had to take it to a bow shop and have it fitted for lefty. It was an inexpensive fix.

I just unscrewed the handle fixtures so I could put that on. The velcro strap is extremely annoying and falls out when I take it off. If I could reverse the velcro side I think I could get it to stay in.

There is a insert in it that I think could be reversed, I have not tried because I needed it right handed. Go to SenakyPeteholsters.com and I sure you will find the answer. I love my Sneaky Pete.

I don't think so - it is molded to fit the right hand - just tried it - nope very very awkward - sorry

Yes, there is an adjustable and padded hand strap on the right side. (Your question prompted me to answer an as yet un-asked but related Question: How about the left-handed people out there? I'm sorry left-handers, this camera is made exclusively to be held in the right hand, as are the majority of camcorders I've seen. I guess you who are left handed will just have to manage with what to you is the "wrong" hand until the camera makers catch up to you. A good alternative for the time being: use a tripod.) I happen to be right handed, so this camera, with the viewfinder on the left and the hand strap on the right works great for me. Enjoy!

You can configure it differently than pictured. I made mine cross behind my back and connects to my belt on the other side. It looks nice but is not comfortable for regular carry. Just a show piece. Pretty stiff.

No - Im terrified to try. There is a slot in the spare hand so I assume it fits on but I cannot get the standard hand to come off the peg. I really have tried. It could just be very well fditted but it feels risky. It is anice model once you know what to expect

Not to me personally. My handles are still intact. The cross body strap is what I typically use.

I can put mine on either shoulder, but use it for my right side, The strap goes around from back too front. the smaller velcro strap goes around arm to hold it in place. I wondered how in the world to you put this on at first also!

Left shoulder is wher you want this strap. I have the one that is shown and I'm right handed. Works' great
