@Hello4

When you say, it rotates do you mean that you get a mirror effect?

Hi Hello4,

There are no settings for this in the camera application that you can change since the view finder in the camera works as a mirror. What you can do (if you want to have the photo mirrored) is to edit the picture after you have captured it:

The photo editor application do have a Mirror function.

There is no need to use that kind of language, we are just trying to help you and also explain to you how it works.

The view finder, the screen that you see on the phone while using the front camera (the first of the pictures that you've uploaded) is working as a mirror. If you for example write the text "SONY" on a note and check it via the front camera, you will see that the text is backwards: YNOS, just as you would do if you stand in front of a mirror with this note. When the photo is captured, it will display the photo correct (not mirrored). It is therefore the same thing as someone would take a photo of you while using the rear camera.

So yes, you need to either edit the photo after you have captured it or you need to look for a third party camera application via Google Play that is saving the photo as a mirrored photo.
