My camera is not filming level. It is 2-3 degrees off. Is my lens crooked. Is this fixable? And yes my tripod is level.

Try to put the camera on a flat table, with water level check if the table is flat, then with water level check if the light shoe (on the top of the camera) is flat. I had a similar problem and the problem was in the compound of camera and tripod top plate that were not parallel, so top plate and tripod was a flat but the camera was crooked!
 
I have already done this. I put both my cameras on the table to rule out something with my tripod. Camera 2 was perfectly level while me 150 is off 2-3 degrees.
 
Repair shop got back to me and said that they OIS unit needs to be replaced. What does that have to do with it?
 
Thanks Tompa for the article. It is starting to make sense now. I will go ahead and replace the OIS unit for $258.
 
baseball, where did you send the camera in for repair of the OIS unit ? My HMC 150 is having same issue like yours.
