Pros: Right, the pros. It's damn cheap: you can buy 10-20 of them for the price you'd otherwise have to pay at a normal photo shop. It looks exactly like the Kaiser I have (which costs about 10 of these), and works almost the same...
Cons: ... and here comes the minor problem. The copy I have has one of the levels slightly mis-aligned. The bubble is about a few mm off towards one side when level (still within the two lines, but it's clearly not in the centre). Not unusable as long as I remember that it's not perfect, but it's a reminder that cheapness has a price to it.
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: Cheap and usable, but you might want to buy a few at a go for insurance just in case you get one that's not perfect. Plus, these buggers have a habit of getting lost.
Too bad, it doesn't fit Sony

Pros: It's small and works well overall. Could be handy when shooting panorama photos, or when you just want the photo to line up with the horizon.
Cons: Too bad, it doesn't fit on my Sony A200 DSLR, as Sony and Minolta use another hot shoe than Canon etc. do.
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: Too bad it doesn't fit on Sony and Minolta, so I can't use it. I should have looked better to the hot shoe connection before I bought it.
Overall it's a small, well working, leveler that can help you in a lot of situations while making photos.

Pros: this Hot Shoe Double Axis Bubble Level, levels along only 2 planes, but can be fix in more then 2 ways so it will show whether the camera is level when the camera is in landscape or when angled to portrait or even directed to the ground or sky.
Slides easily onto hot shoe of camera (Cannon EOS 1Ds Mark II & III chacked).
Gives accurate level information.
Perfect for panoramic shots and architecture photography.
This is great for shooting in hard positions and studio shooting. Even for normal shooting, this little gadget helps to make sure that you are leveled. same as the Manfrotto 337 Hot Shoe Double Axis Bubble Level but decent price.
Cons: came in a plastic bag, and been a bit scratched.
Other Thoughts: it can be also nice to have the Hot Shoe Three Axis Triple Bubble Spirit Level.
Bottomline: great product!!!
great
