How to get my horizons straight
I recently got a Nikon Coolpix for Xmas. I love it but my horizons have taken a dive to the left. I believe it is because I'm not used to the smaller size, my old digital is much larger. Short of using a tripod, can you give me some tips on how to keep straight.

Can anything be said other than hold the camera straighter?

What works for me, is to place the horizon at the very top, (or bottom) of the viewfinder to line it up,...then, carefully raise, (or lower) the camera to recompose. This works well for scenics, but when shooting action, like birds in flight, my horizons dive too. In this case, I try to exclude them from the scene. There's also the option of straightening it out later with software.
