DNG image orientation (1623)

[lintujuh]

Hi,

 

I have an issue with portrait DNG files taken with my mobile phone. Daminion doesn't recognize the image orientation, it shows the image in landscape. When I try to rotate it 90° (either CW or CCW) the image rotates 180°.

 

There is an example image in my Dropbox folder (IMG_20170421_165557.dng).

Not sure this is the same issue:

 

Recently I noticed the thumbnails of many portrait images don't show the correct orientation. They will be shown correctly, either after "Update Thumbnail" [Ctrl-B] or View [Enter]. In the latter case - depending on size and computer speed - they will show for some seconds in a portrait frame, but the image rotated and distorted (to fit the frame).

 

Instead, if I decide to "turn" the thumbnail using the rotate command (F3 or F4), it will rotate 180°, as Juha described it.

 

I'm not sure, if this was introduced with a recent build or with the fact that I more frequently change the size of the thumbnails, but I noticed it for the first time just a couple of weeks (or months?) ago. But it applies to JPG, not only from the mobile phone and not only recently imported ones.

Hi Wilfried,

 

Unfortunately in my case the "Update Thumbnail" or View doesn't help.

Hi Juha,

 

I have registered the issue with High priority (#4563)

 

I tried to change the orientation with ExifTool and make Daminion recognize it, but without success.

 

Hope the guys will check the issue quickly.

 

Kind regards,

Daria
