ios - iphone image captured from camera rotate -90 degree automatically

Question

Programatically I have fetched image from my camera in my app. It has been fetched nicely but when I shift to another view and dismiss that view at that time my image automatically rotate -90 degree.

and this change occurs only first time after that when I shift no change occurs means image stays in -90 degree state and this happens only when I captued image from camera. when I fetch image from photo library no issue has been found.

following image is my original image

and this is rotated image

I don't know why this change happen.

Answer 1

you have to use this function to rotate image captured by camera

 - (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker
                didFinishPickingImage:(UIImage *)image
                                    editingInfo:(NSDictionary *)editingInfo
{
    image = [self scaleAndRotateImage:image];
    [self useImage:image];
    [[picker parentViewController] dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}


- (void)scaleAndRotateImage:(UIImage *)image
{
    int kMaxResolution = 320; // Or whatever

    CGImageRef imgRef = image.CGImage;

    CGFloat width = CGImageGetWidth(imgRef);
    CGFloat height = CGImageGetHeight(imgRef);

    CGAffineTransform transform = CGAffineTransformIdentity;
    CGRect bounds = CGRectMake(0, 0, width, height);
    if (width > kMaxResolution || height > kMaxResolution) {
        CGFloat ratio = width/height;
        if (ratio > 1) {
            bounds.size.width = kMaxResolution;
            bounds.size.height = bounds.size.width / ratio;
        }
        else {
            bounds.size.height = kMaxResolution;
            bounds.size.width = bounds.size.height * ratio;
        }
    }

    CGFloat scaleRatio = bounds.size.width / width;
    CGSize imageSize = CGSizeMake(CGImageGetWidth(imgRef), CGImageGetHeight(imgRef));
    CGFloat boundHeight;
    UIImageOrientation orient = image.imageOrientation;
    switch(orient) {

        case UIImageOrientationUp: //EXIF = 1
