I just downloaded all my photos and videos onto my computer from my phone and, apparently, I've been taking pictures and videos upside down. :rolleyes: Does anyone know, when taking a landscape picture or video, which side of the iPhone is "up"? /The side with the audio controls or the other side?/ Like the lunkhead I am, I'm assuming it's the same across all versions. LOL.

Um, silly question... Why not just experiment by taking a picture that you don't care about, noting how you are holding the phone, and then seeing how it turns out?

Joy,

Um... because I didn't think of that. Oh, right. Now, I remember why. Because the iPhone shows the picture as right side up no matter which direction you hold the phone, but when you download it to your computer it decides which is up and which is down. All my daughter's school productions were upside. :rolleyes: /I don't video much and download to my computer even more rarely./ I guess, I could take a picture now and then download it to see what direction the computer gave it. I was just hoping someone knew off the top of their head.

The page below talks about this issue. Read especially the comments at the end.

Thanks, Malu. I'll check this out.

LATER: Checked it out. It answers my question and then some (i.e. shoot landscape photos with volume buttons down because Windows hasn't figured out that Mac / i-whatever has taken over the world and they need to adapt their software to reflect the new emperor).

Malu!
