Fitbit counts steps while doing elliptical. Is this normal ?

If your arms/wrists are moving it will count steps. Mine counts steps when I am crocheting.0

Yes but don't log it as additional exercise as it will double your calories burned.0

If you are doing a step-like motion, the Fitbit may register it as steps. Does not sound unreasonable.0

I wore my fitbit while riding a motorcycle and got 20000 steps!1

I discovered my Fitbit gave me steps while riding my bicycle (despite it recognizing the activity as cycling and showing 0 steps - still had steps added to my daily total), so I don't wear it while bike riding anymore.0

So will it affect the calories burned?0
