I have a cybershot DSC-T90 which Ive been using happily for a few years. However as of yesterday, when i take a photo it saves sideways. So when I view it on my camera its flipped 90 degrees anti-clockwise. Also when i copied the pics onto pc they came out that way. I guess I might have accidentally changed one of the settings? Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

Hi totalmon,

welcome to Questions & Answers..:smileyhappy:

I'm not sure what you may have done but two options I think may resolve the problem..

First try this one..

Or,

Open the cameras Menu & scroll to rotate

If neither of those resolve the problem then you could try restoring your camera back to default settings..

There is a setting for automatic image orientation (vertical or horizontal) which might be worth checking.

Go to Settings > Shooting Settings > Auto-orientation

If you find an image is still wrongly oriented on the camera display, you can use the Rotate function in the Menu screen to manually fix it, as Thalamus suggests.

Cheers

Thanks guys

After fiddling about with it, and turning off and on the auto-orientation it eventually righted itself.

Thanks again for the help, much appreciated.

Thanks for the tip. You can also flip it when you already published and saved it to your computer.
