I just got my Lumia 900 about a week ago, and almost immediately go the Tango update, so I don't know if this is a new Tango related problem or something that has been with to 900 since the beginning.

When I take pictures in the 7mp 16:9 format from a landscape orientation (phone sideways), the phone has trouble rotating the pictures to view them correctly. If i take the picture in 8mp 4:3 format this does not happen.

This also applies to uploading them to skydrive. The pictures upload "sideways", as in the example below. Anyone else have this problem, or a suggestion how to fix it? I really like taking pictures in widescreen format, but having to manually rotate the pictures afterward is a pain in the butt.

Make sure, before you take the picture, that your phone is level... but MOST importantly...................... the orientation is showing correctly.
