Squiffy camera???

[Waterworx]

Hi folks, long time no post, been a tad poorly.
Went out for the first time in ages with my camera tonight. I'm just wondering if things inside my 350 are a little squiffy.
I've notice I've had to rotate a few images on the PC even though I have levelled the camera and the AF markings are perfectly level with the horizon. I've posted a pic below (not the best shot but there is a horizon to see), can things inside go a little squiffy?

You help with this is much appreciated.

I doubt it

It is a nice thought though as it would explain why so many of my shots are wonky!

Seriously though try it with a more controlled test shot - something like a brick wall with the camera on a tripod and square to the wall.

I doubt it too. A horizon only has be off by about half a degree and it leaps out at you. I'm levelling my shots all the while in processing.

Me too. But with me its because I use my left eye to the viewfinder and I find that tends to make shots a bit wonky!!

I'll try a better control, was starting to think there was something wrong as I didn't notice it when I first started shooting, now it jumps out at me and slaps me around the chops, dead annoying.
Cheers guys

TBH leveling horizons is part of my normal work flow for landscapes, even using a decent spirit level its still easy to be out by a few degrees, you have the tool to fix it, so use it.
