Hi J.C. I just found the translation to "spirit level" = "water level" ? Yes, I'm looking for some kind of handmade solution, maybe I could just take the "level part" out an glue it as you did. I was just thinking loud but not hard enough:-) I could image visibility in the viewfinder to be a nice feature for architectural shots. Of course your right, fitting a level on the body for handheld shots does indeed not make a lot of sense, stupid me...
