KennyNguyen Posted November 23, 2019 Share #1 Posted November 23, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) When I download photos from my camera M10 to Iphone through Leica App, all photos are reversed. I have to rotate photos. I took out the SD card from the camera and check all photos are reversed also. Pls kindly help to solve this problem.

jaapv Posted November 23, 2019 Share #2 Posted November 23, 2019 Two possibilities: You are right-handed and have purchased a left-handed camera or you mounted the SD card the wrong way around. Seriously: I have never heard of such a problem and I can only call it weird. I can only speculate that the firmware is corrupted. Contact Leica and ask for advice 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyNguyen Posted November 23, 2019 Author Share #3 Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) At the first time using, the photos didn't happen like that problem (I also upgraded new firmware when I got the camera). But now it happened Edited November 23, 2019 by KennyNguyen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viv Posted November 23, 2019 Share #4 Posted November 23, 2019 You have an antimatter camera. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kwesi Posted November 23, 2019 Share #7 Posted November 23, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) Then my guess is that its not the camera but the app/ipad. can you try transferring photos from another camera to the iPad? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwesi Posted November 23, 2019 Share #8 Posted November 23, 2019 Are your images reversed left to right (backwards) or does a vertical image appear horizontal? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is something in the camera that monitors the orientation and writes that info into the files. If that was malfunctioning you might have this problem, but if the shots are displaying normally on the camera back, that is probably not the case. Try a computer instead of your ipad and you should know for sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried many times: reset camera, format/change SD card, take out photos from computer, move SD card to another camera (photos not reversed) and find that this error issued by Leica M10 😢 Asking to Leica and waiting for reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mujk Posted November 25, 2019 Share #14 Posted November 25, 2019 Very strange behaviour. I recall having read about incorrect rotation information being applied to images, but not getting a mirrored image, as I understand you are experiencing. The orientation tag in DNG metadata can actually be set to a value that indicates a mirrored image, which is then reversed in the rendering software. But why would camera firmware set this value??? Because of a faulty orientation sensor? But this would explain why the DNG is reversed and the JPG preview is not. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
