Started taking some shots yesterday and noticed that when I power up the camera it makes what I call the sound of a tiny machine gun. Yeah, I really don't know how else to describe it. It makes this noise for like 2 seconds then everything seems fine. No problems except for the fact the final image isn't the same as when I look through the viewfinder. Everything moves up a bit when shooting horizontally (when shooting vertically it moves left). Take this shot for example:



His left eye was dead center when I pressed the shutter. Every shot is like this no matter the lens.

Bad news?

Bump.

Meant to say his RIGHT EYE was centered in the original composition.

Derr.

Sounds like your mirror is out of alignment. Would be the only logical explination that I can think of. Is your camera still under warranty? If so take it back and see if you can get it fixed or replaced.
