On EX 430 and higher, the camera plate turns to the right instead of left.
This leaves left hand free to adjust tripod and camera controls while taking images in portrait mode. Importantly when using telephoto lenses the camera remains securely attached to plate due to effect of gravity tightening the screw connection.
