The last post explains why large format photography is such a good thing. Because the image is upside down on the viewing screen, it appears right side up on the retina, and the brain doesn't have to turn it upside down again to understand it.

Sorry people,
I am afraid I offended some people with my joke. Quite frankly I wanted some hum or in my life, and this question popped into my head and I figured, why not. There has to be some fellow large fo rmat photographers out there that would just a kick out of this question. We now life in a societly tha t is full of hate, anger, mistrust, and fear. I never lived that way before and I will not continue to life my life that way. So humor is the best way for me to deal with it. Thanks for the humorus responses, I really enjoyed them.
Thank YOU, Sir.
Well done Larry
Wait wait!!
Does I understand about the southern hemisphere cameras not working north of the equator, but does that mean if I go to Lonndon and procede further east, then the image in my Rollie will start to move in the correct horizontal orientation?
My goodness- all these years.
OOOOPS
Scratch that first "Does".
It must have something to do with the coriolis affect. George
Come on guys, it doesn't matter what hemisphere you're in. The image will always be upside down. The only way to reverse it is to use reversing film. That's why there's "negative" film (which leaves the image upside down) and "positive" film (which reverses it to right side up).

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be
a mile away and you'll have their shoes.
You all are just too funny. I had a really good laugh reading all the comments. I can't imagine that our fellow photographer was serious, but if he was, I'm sure it was just a case of asking a question before thinking like I'm sure we all do from time to time. I bet he wishes he didn't hit return so quick!
Hilarious!!!
(I wish you could fix the upside down problem that way)
