Rotating Pictures

Post by truckeeboy »

When I take a picture with the camera rotated to the right the pictures shows up in Windows explore with the picture top on the right. In X2 it also showed with the top on the right. In X3 and X5 the photo is shown with the top on the top, auto-rotated.
When I rotate the picture in X5 or maybe X2 counter clockwise the picture is now shown in Windows Explore correctly, top on top. But when viewed in X5 the picture now appears rotated to the left, the top on the left.
Does anyone know what is going on?
Too much automation, and everyone is confused.

I turned off the auto rotate feature in my camera. I use a number of graphics programs, some look for the auto rotate info and rotate the image and some do not. To save confusion and problems I have all images shown as taken in camera. I then use Canon's Zoom Browser to rotate the images correctly and they appear the same in all graphics software as there is no auto rotate info included with the images.
