jpg rotation problem

[Jacee]

When I rotate any photo from the s2 and create a web gallery using Photoshop or Iview, I get these black images with lines. See attached. Any ideas on what is going on or how to fix this, or how to get around it?

With no rotation, the photos come into the in web gallery on their sides...I've tried this with different OS different computers and different versions of quicktime..same results...
Any ideas?

Well this is a weird one , i've never seen anything like that before .
If you've tried different OS and computers , different software and it's still the same it's gotta be a bug in the fuji/photoshop rotation converter .
couple of questions
does the shot show up normally in landscape mode ?
does it rotate correctly in windows viewer?
can you rotate it in photoshop without going into the web gallery ?
if it does , i'd try re-installing photoshop to see if there is a corruption in the web gallery files somewhere .
maybe one of the more experianced computer/photoshop guys on here can help .good luck

sorry just realised you've tried different computers , so that rules out that , must be in the camera .

It might be that the pixel ration has been changed, unlikely but possible. I have not seen this type of image before. Could you post a before rotation image so that we can see what we get.
What steps are you actually doing in the way of rotation and then web gallery?

When a s2 image is dropped into an Iview catalog it is landscape by default.There is and icon to rotate the image clockwise or counterclockwise. When doing so the image is now right reading. When the catalog is completed, I make a web gallery using Iview and also a quicktime movie to present to clients. This is when the image posted occurs.
Any ideas?

Sounds like it must be the IView software doing it. Do you have the latest software?

I suspected Iview at first- then downloaded the lastest software- same problem.
To try something different, I used photoshop and created the web gallery in photoshop- with the same problems-which leads me to believe it's a fuji s2 issue. I am baffled.

Could you post an image un-rotated and see if we can download it and rotate it.

Are you shooting JPEG or RAW? If RAW, it could be that the RAF is corrupt, and the embedded JPEG isn't. I remember seeing some similar shots early on with microdrives from someone who either had a bad drive, or was shooting near a lot of RFI. Try a new card and a different location?

I'm shootin fine jpgs not raw.. the jpgs open ok in photoshop or picture viewer.
If I create the web gallery and don't rotate the images the web gallery works, except all the images are sideways. Sorry I don't have a rotating monitor.
For my workflow the s2 camera is un usable!

I never have this problem with the PhotoShop Web Gallery (I do not use Iview). All of mine work just fine with either Horizontal of Vertical. Sounds like some kind of file corruption in either the camera or your download computer. Since I cannot duplicate your trouble I cannot offer any other insight. Strange.

If you open a full-sized image in PS, can you rotate that manually without issue?
