LOL.
Have you ever thought about playing a piano? How about making a left handed piano for you, Mr. YAMAHA please? Even if Steinway make one for you, will that make you a better piano player?
Have you ever heard of the pianist Paul Wittgenstein who lost his right arm during war?

Have you ever heard of composer Maurice Ravel who wrote his "Piano Concerto for the Left Hand" for him?

Everything is possible if you have the will and the resources. Look at all the ideas comming from this comunity.
Ignorance and the lack of empathy like shown by you is just without words
You are missing the point, Mr Wittgenstein played a regular piano with his left hand, he didn't expect somebody to make him a reversed piano, nobody is questioning his determination and perseverance, but the relevance of his story is not clear.
To be sure, there are several differing ideas within the thread, but then when aren't there!
First, a lady with only one working hand, her left, would like an easier camera to use. As has been demonstrated there are enough readily available solutions to negate the financial implications to manufacture a native one given the potential market. The market would be approximately half of the one handed people that have more than a passing interest in photography.
Second, left handed people in general, those that have two healthy working hands. Reading through the thread it seems most of those 'lefties' have been forced to adopt to life with certain devices that favour right handed people, though I particularly liked the comment that one left handed person left that said they liked 'right handed' cameras because for them the focus and zoom, which we all do with our left hand, is dominant. Would there be a good market for left handed cameras for these people, even though it is a completely different question than the OP's situation? I doubt it, given the model ranges and the seemingly modest market for other left handed supplies (is it all mail order?).
Third, those that like to take issue with people posting their opinions, which is funny because it is the entire point of fora dating back thousands of years. Look, this written form of communication is fraught with potential errors but people seem to search out what they perceive as insults or insensitivity when none is meant, for example, do people seriously think Benedict Cumberbatch is racist? But rather than engage in the actual conversation of
'is there intrinsic racism in the entertainment industry in the UK?' lets pick on the guy pointing it out for being a closet racist.
. We only need tools to make it happen.
