Kay, Something is wrong. I know for a fact that canon cameras have a proper orientation exif tag, as well as the stupid "canon only" orientation tags.
I say "stupid" because sometimes they conflict with the proper orientation tags. Orientation tag tells you which way the image should be rotated. CameraOrientation (the stupid canon one) tells you which way the camera was being held, but should not instruct anything about how the image itself should be rotated.
