Hi,
compared the K-7 I test with my most trusted bubble level.
Horizontally it's about one unit off, i.e. when the bubble sits in
the middle, K-7 wants me to rotate a camera a bit counterclockwise.
Vertical position is even more inaccurate (2-3 units)
BR, Margus
IF the K-7 had a bubble level inside, you could expect accurate
readings. But it only has a digital inclinometer, and a cheap one at
that. It's just something they could include to mirror the feature set
of the big boys. Don't expect too much. It's better than guessing,
judging by many of my shots. Thanks Apple for allowing me to
straighten up my images in Aperture.
You'll need to carry your iPhone/iTouch (or the functional equivalent)
with you, equipped with any of the apps that will do a carpenter's
level, plumb bob, and compass with you. They are all adjustable in set-
up, providing a slightly more accurate reading.
