p.1 #1Bubble Level Offer Extended -- Still $20
IMPORTANT UPDATES (Friday Sep 3rd):

A) We are no longer Back-Ordered!!! Offer will remain open to FM members until we are sold out!

Due to incredible popularity of the posting from last week, Jobu Design is extending our offer on the Dubble Bubble Level. Thank you all for the kind comments and good luck wishes.

In a nutshell, here it is again: $25US ($20+$5 shipping) gets the level shipped to your door in North America. Xpedited shipping to the USA or Canada (includes tracking #) is available for an extra $5 (not too bad for peace of mind when it comes to the US postal service...).

Levels may be bought immediately by making a PayPal payment to [email protected] at www.paypal.com. If you live in Ontario you must add 8%PST to your order ($25USx1.08 PST converts to = $35.10CDN)

Images may be viewed at www.jobu-design.com

Thank you all again very much,
Have a great week (and it's almost the weekend! )

I ordered a Dubble Bubble Level last week during the FM forum offer and was pleased to find it in the mail today. This is a well made chunk of metal! I can't wait to start using it this weekend. Ian has provided first rate service on a first rate product. Looking forward to more in the future.

Hi Jim,

Your order was shipped first thing Monday morning by US Post, so you likely will get it in the next day or two. It is 5-7 days by US Post.

Jim,

FWIW, I live in Florida and got mine today so you will probably get yours tomorrow (just in time for the weekend). Enjoy.

Is it possible to make one that doesn't have anything written on it in big white letters?

Got mine today. Very nice level.

I do wish the shoe at the bottom was "grooved" both ways so the level could fit what ever way a person wanted.

The only orientations that providing a 2-way groove on the bottom of the level would be to level the camera directly up or down. I'm not exactly sure why someone would want to level dead up, or straight down... circular star trails are created by aiming at the North star, not straight up.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, we're eager to improve our products in any way (I'm not too concerned about my astro-physics being corrected).

Also, the current configuration maximizes the strength of the 'foot'.

I got mine yesterday and it is very nice. But.......
I do a fair amount of leveling for panos where the camera is at aya level or above. I really like to see the other kind of levels--little tubes--because it is hard to sight a circular level from the side.... I see the top level being useable from the side for verticals, not as a look down level. Is this feaseable?

Ian,

I think someone might be interested in the ability to level "dead up" if they were using something like the following:

Thanks for the 'heads-up', pardon the pun. That Kaidan set-up does indeed require a level camera pointing vertically. However, it would be more important for the mirror and VR set-up to be level, as the camera is separated by many clamps and changes of orientation, which creates a tolerance stack-up that could be unfavourable. Ideally, the mirror AND the camera should be dead level.

I'll investigate modifying the levels to allow any orientation.

Hi

I just received the Jobo design bubble level. I'm very satisfied with the product, it's rock-solid and fits my Canon Elan IIe and 10d.

Mine just arrived today also, from the playing around with it they seem really nice. Now I just need to grab my gear and go out and shoot with them.

I also found out that my countertop is not quite level...these things have many uses
