NormanPCN Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I tried opening a Canon 20D JPEG file which is in portrait orientation and Afinity opened it in landscape orientation. It seems the EXIF orientation flag is not correctly read at least in some circumstances. Windows explorer, viewer, Adobe and On1 are all good with the file. -Norman brianandcamera 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Ingram Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Can you attach the file or send a link to Dropbox so we can try to reproduce the issue? If it's private you can send me a private message with a link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianandcamera Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I noticed this in my thread about sigma X3F raw files as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NormanPCN Posted November 11, 2016 Author Share Posted November 11, 2016 I've only noticed this on old 20D jpg photos. Old 20D raw files, at least the ones I checked, come in portrait. I just tried one jpg from my current Canon 7D and it opened portrait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Ingram Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Interestingly, it doesn't appear to have any EXIF data: <?xpacket begin="" id="W5M0MpCehiHzreSzNTczkc9d"?> <x:xmpmeta xmlns:x="adobe:ns:meta/" x:xmptk="XMP Core 5.5.0"> <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"> <rdf:Description rdf:about=""/> </rdf:RDF> </x:xmpmeta> You can view this via View > Studio > EXIF, then change the combo to Raw data on the EXIF panel. Windows must be reading some other metadata from the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianandcamera Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 My X3F seems to have a bucket of exif data, but I'll stop hijacking this thread sorry :O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Ingram Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Attach your file here as well Brian and I can take a look at that file at the same time. brianandcamera 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NormanPCN Posted November 11, 2016 Author Share Posted November 11, 2016 Interestingly, it doesn't appear to have any EXIF data: Do with the photo as you will. I don't care about the tech details of the metadata. I just know Affinity does not work when all others are good with the file (Windows, Adobe, On1 Photo). They all list the Camera model, Aperture, shutter speed, ISO, rating, keywords and of course read the orientation flag. That is a very old photo and Adobe Bridge has likely touched or added or maybe moved the metadata. You can decide what you want to do about that.

Mark Ingram Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Hopefully we'll be able to sort something out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NormanPCN Posted November 11, 2016 Author Share Posted November 11, 2016 The metadata may very well be XMP metadata embeded in the JPG and Adobe removed the original camera metadata so that there are not two sets of metadata in the file. IF two then which do you read? If this line of reasoning is accurate then Affinity should probably support XMP metadata. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Ingram Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 We do read XMP as well, but, I've just looked at this and it seems like there might be a problem reading the data. Hopefully we can get this fixed soon. brianandcamera 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianandcamera Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Mark - just want to clarify - my issue isn't just orientation, so please give my thread a look before you close me out too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
