For anyone who knows what I'm talking about...
I need you to:
- take a digital photograph with the camera rotated 90 deg i.e. turned so its portrait rather than landscape format.
- ensure the EXIF data is intact (and if technically minded that rotation information has been saved by the camera)
- attach the pic as an attachment to a post (below). Do NOT select any rotation options when attaching the pic - leave as it.
I am testing the auto-rotate feature. It SHOULD work, but only if there is relevant EXIF information in the image file.
Thank you.
Here's one for you Mike, dunno if the info you want is in there or not, but it's been taken with a 90 degree rotation of the camera.
Pulled on my maiden voyage - :facepalm:
When viewed on your computer does it look like that or sideways?
(Then he thinks that the computer might autorotate it with camera settings...hmm.)
As displayed here Mike, Opposite to most other pic's I take.
Looks portrait to me also Mike
I mean when displayed on his computer, not on the forum. It's probably academic though.
Yer want I should upload it again WITH a 90 degree rotation (to make it landscape) an see what happens?
There's no rotation option on the upload page. I'll post it then edit it & see if the rotate is an option there.
Bugger me, it's there now, (after I pushed post). Rotated 270 degrees.
AS in rotate it on your computer THEN upload it? Not sure if that'd work (as a test) but would be interesting nonetheless.
(Auto -image rotation relies entirely on EXIF data. This is recorded by the camera and I don;t THINK computer editing changes it)
It came out right way up??
Maybe your auto rotate thingy is working after all Mike.
