Emailed Pix are upside-down:iPhone4s
Pictures taken with the iPhone 4s, and sent directly from the iPhone 4s, were received upside down. Yet, when sending the same picture to my self having an iMac/Apple, orientation was correct. If I forwarded the picture from the iMac, orientation was upside down when received. Spoke with Apple Support, below summarizes the discussion. Note the last sentence for the work around. Pictures were taking on the iPhone 4s in landscape mode, did not test portrait.
"Emailed Pix are upside-down:
" Pictures/EXIF data and the viewing programs need to properly respect the orientation flag and some simply do not pay attention to the flag.
Previous to iOS4 the iPhone used the CPU to orient the picture before saving it so that a rotation was not needed on the viewing end. This rotation is CPU intensive and was one of the reasons for the long save times on iPhone cameras. Modern cameras (Canon, Nikon, etc.) do not do this, they save the image in their native format and set the rotation flag based upon how the image should be viewed. With iOS4 Apple merely joined the 'modern' camera world in this respect.

ImpulseAdventure - JPEG / Exif Orientation and Rotation
" Work around is to hold the iPhone with home button to the right and take a picture and then when the programs who do not pay attention to the EXIF data read them they will appear rotated correctly." "
