panoramic shoot set-up

I don't know about in camera setup but I always use a double bubble level mounted on the hot shoe of the camera to be able to get it level to pan a wide degree.
 
Nature: Do you have a pic of the leveling system that attaches to the hot shoe? And where did you get?
 
It looks just like this one.
I used it back in my still photography days. Works great for panning a video camera around too. :)

I got mine from a still photographer that worked for the Smithsonian, but you can get one at about any photo store.
 
Wow, you would not think those prices would be so high
compared to a homedepot Leveler Now I dont mind spending money, but I sure like to SAVE IT more. :)

This item is definitely more convenient, not to mention mount to the hot shoe. I guess I am just being a stingy today :)
 
The difference between a $2 home depot level and a manfrotto $36 level will be accuracy and quality.
