A WORCESTER shop is stocking a world first that should prove invaluable for left-handed photographers.

Anything Left-Handed, in Charles Street, is selling the first camera specifically designed for left-handed people.

It was launched only this month, by the shop's umbrella organisation Anything Left-Handed, the world's leading specialists in left-handed products.

"It is a beautifully simple 35mm snapshot camera that has the shutter release button and raised grip on the left side," said Mark Stewart, who owns Worcester's Anything Left-Handed.

"It also has a centrally-located viewfinder comfortable for the left eye to look through."

He said the £19.95 camera was light and compact enough to be easily used with just one hand - "as long as it is the left!"

It also has all the usual features such as auto-focus, 'red eye' reduction and automatic wind-on and flash.
