Everyone else (as I'm aware) put the lens release button on the opposite side of the grip. If you've never used another camera, you'll find that some interesting hand-crobatics are sometimes needed when unmounting a lens, especially large ones. Of all the silly things I think Sony has done with their designs, this is one thing they got exactly correct. You can keep a solid grip and push the button with one hand which lets you get a good grip on the lens.
Brilliant!
It does take some time for muscle memory to change so you stop looking for the button on the far side. This has really become evident to me while playing with the Maxxum and my old film cameras. It looks like they kept it on the far side through their DSLR and SLT cameras, changing it with the mirrorless offerings.
