Do you take them with the volume buttons on top or on bottom?

It happened to me back in early November and I was taking snaps with the volume button on top. All you need to do is rotate it around and shoot with them on the bottom. I fixed the photos after the fact.

I take photos with the buttons on top (where they should be) and they show in Windows upside-down. It's something to do with the meta data. They show normally in photo apps like Photoshop, it's just Windows that has issues.

If you open the pic in photoshop and immediately save it (without doing anything), they suddenly appear correctly in Windows.

I find it easier with the buttons down. Use my left thumb to take the pictures, but that may be me being weird.

The problem you're having is due to the clients not correctly reading the meta tags on the photos.

We've created an app that resolves this issue if you're looking to email photos (and also uses better JPEG compression than the default as a bonus).

You can get SnapBot for free on the app store, I can't post a link to it here as I don't have more than 10 posts sorry, but just do a search for it.

Hope this helps!
