Hello guys,

I have two questions that I need help with today.

The first one I am asking for a photographer that I met the other night at a local photography meeting. His question has to do with the auto rotate function on my 10D. He has the 1DS and he says that it doesn’t auto rotate in preview. His question to me was when I imported the jpegs into my computer did I have to rotate the pictures or did they automatic come out that way. I told him using the software bundled with camera they are already rotated for me.

Some information I got from him: He does not use standard software but uses the BreezeBrowser.

Is it that his cameras wont rotate pictures or that the software he uses does not do it. Should he use the standard software first then use BreezeBrowser. Any thoughts would help.

Second question has to do with my website that I am currently putting together. I know some photographers after, event photography post there pictures to the web. They use services that allow people to log in, pick the size of the picture and buy them right there. Then the site creates a check and it is sent to the photographer. All the photographer has to do is load the pictures and the extra money comes rolling in.

Does anyone know of a service like this?

The 1DS doesn't have the hardware to support autorotation, so your fellow photographer is out of luck.

The 10D inserts an "Orientation" field in the EXIF data. Any software that recognizes that field can rotate the picture. Canon's File Viewer and Breezebrowser recognize this field. Photoshop does not.

Is there something that he has to setup to auto rotate the picture. He says that after he brings the pictures in he has to sit and rotate them correctly.

The 1Ds does not support autorotation, period.
