That was the theory behind the front placement of the shutter release on the Miranda Sensorex, which I owned when it first came out. Made sense to me. When I was healthy enough to participate in long range rifle matches one trick some of us used was to align the thumb along the top of the stock rather than wrapping it around the stock. Helped to prevent canting caused by unconsciously gripping the rifle in a stranglehold. Then the index finger pulled back into alignment with the thumb. Breath control techniques are identical for both disciplines too.

Another technique, on tripod or handheld, is to hold the camera between thumb and finger, so that you squeeze the shutter release between them, rather than just applying pressure from one side.

I thought this technique should only be use in a "PINCH"?{:-)

yours going for the "grabber",
