Thanks very much - haven't been doing any editing on the camera - editing orientation, color, etc. after photo is transferred to desktop - will edit orientation on the camera before transferring.

 

Thanks again.

Rich, you should already have received my earlier thanks, but if not...have been editing photos on desktop - tried editing on the camera for orientation and it worked! Thanks very much -
