Interesting comments on the use of a level, which I
have done many times in the past, but it still does not address
the issue of actual level or perceived level of the visible
horizon. I suspect this one will never be resolved and I am okay
with that. I do find that using grid lines in the viewfinder or
LCD helps me with my left side low bias. But in my corn field
photo the only place I could use it was to keep the tree vertical,
still my preference. It is really nice to see an extended and thoughtful discussion again. More, please.
