Weird R3 horizon balance issue

Hey everybody. Recently had a fellow photographer go through some unedited albums I have on Lightroom and she finally addressed an issue I guess I’ve been putting out of my mind for a while. A lot of my shots are off balance on the horizontal plane. I’ve been shooting a good majority of my life and professionally for well over a decade at this point. I’ve never had this issue before.

Any ideas? Is the R3 just that heavy on one side? I was thinking maybe starting to shoot with a monopod. I know there’s that one menu option that has vertical and horizontal levels but that’s a lot of info on my screen. I’ve been cropping but getting that feedback really made me want to solve the issue on set

Funny thing. I have noticed the same strange occurrence with my 1DX. I am afraid the answer is just getting older is the culprit. I now have acknowledged the fact and take extra care shooting horizons. But you know it is an easy fix in LR or PS.
