350D something strange.
#1

I took 6 shots of a sundog more or less within 5 minutes of each other. I changed viewpoints, and none of the settings, but I have two of the six have come out flipped L. to R.
Anyone know of any occurences of this or why it happened.

I've had my 350D for about 4 years and recorded 5000+ images. Never had a flip in all that time. I understand that spots, similar to sundogs, can also occur around the moon. Are they called "moondogs"?

Not that I know of. I only noticed when I uploaded to the PC and spotted it then by the positions of some caravans.
I wondered if taking into the sun had caused it.
Auto-rotate only rotates as far as I know. When I have a bit more time I will post them. I only have the exif in zoombrowser. The one in irfanview is far more complex but I ain't got that loaded.
It has been suggested that I reload windows again as my pc is acting strange.:/ Stranger than me. Big Grin
The flip is in camera as well as on the pc.

Probably. The one I saw was a double. One at each side of the sun, which makes me think it is some kind of rainbow/prismatic effect.
The only other things I can think of is some kind of refraction from the sun causing it via the lens.

It would appear after I have had a good look and lightened everything dramatically, that I took the two offending shots through a window, but I cannot for the life of me remember doing it.
My apologies (and I will let you have some of the wine I must have been drinking) Tongue
