Same problem.  I can often use the AF points as a rough grid, assuming I
remember to do it.

Level... the new Nikon  D3/300 has a virtual horizon, almost like an 
artificial horizon aircraft  guage, on the LCD.  Unfortunately where
it's 
really needed is in the  viewfinder.  I'd like to see that as standard

equipment on DSLR's. With  a post-exposure warning when the camera is
tilted 
at button press.  :-)

A tripod of course helps with level and a bubble level on the hotshoe 
can 
also when shooting that way.

============
Be  nice if camera would warn when it's not level. I get so caught up
with 
what I am  shooting that I am often tipping when I am not aware of it.

I got a hot  shoe bubbler recently, just came, as an interim solution.
But I 
can see real  problems with that -- not that easy to line the bubble up
and 
one has to take  one's eye away from the viewfinder to do it.

But in a pinch it may be a  lot better than nothing.
