I'd suggest using the image in the camera to adjust the level.   I'm sure that the 

camera's viewfinder is displaying a flickering double image, right?  Just pick 

out some handy reference point in the frame and adjust the adapter until the L 

and R images are on the same level vertically.   Same for adjusting the window 

on the thing.  Point it at something the distance you want the window set, then do
 the adjustment until they're overlapped.

Haven't seen one of the above adapters, but that's what I've used to adjust my 

Toshiba camcorder.  Works like a charm.

I'd be interested in how the adapter performs with close-ups.  I'd suspect it's 

assymetric design would cause magnification problems between the two images 

if you got too close.
