Rotate to portrait-Then Process Issue!

Rob2
HI Folks, I did a search and could not find the issue I have been experiencing.
In Cap 1 Pro after I rotate a nikon D80 nef to portrait and then process to either jpg or tiff the top of the shot is cut off. I'm not doing a crop, just a simple rotate and process. The size numbers are set correctly. This only happens with rotates, all other processed files are great.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    RobG,

    Are you using any program at all before moving files into a Capture One Session?

    Are you using the 90CCW + 90CW buttons or the Arbitrary Rotation tool?
    Are you using the process or the QuickProof ?

    Regards,

    HI Keith, I download my files via card reader with NikonViews transfer tool, I then open CP to load the previews. When I come to a portrait shot I click on the "adjust image rotation" tool and enter 90 cw. At this point I usually click on exposure to start my adjustments to the image, whereby I am prompted for rotate or don't rotate..I choose rotate and carry on with my adjustments, but thats it for rotation or any further image angle adjustments. I then click process to tiff or jpg 100%, 240 DPI and the resulting image has almost 1/3 of the top cropped off.

    Not sure if you anything else.
    Just let me know.
    Cheers,
    Rob

    Rob,

    Most DSLRs have an in-camera setting regarding rotation.
    Upon loading into Capture One it should Know which end is up.
    When exactly do you get prompted to
    Rotate / Don't Rotate
    ?

    What do you have set at Preferences > Process settings > Process settings area ?
    Do NOT rotate the image ( according to orientation) by chance?

    I see 2 variables here. Try one at a time to narrow the problem.

    1- Don't use the Arbitrary Rotation ( Adjust image rotation) tool. Use the icons for 90ccw or 90cw and test results.

    2- don't use the Nikon downloader. Just transfer image files direct from card in reader to HD Session folder.

    Test results.

    Cheers,
    k c

    HI again, I did not have CP set to Do not rotate, it was unchecked. I tried using the icons instead of the arbritary tool and that worked..no more cropped top. I will also (next shoot) try not using Nikon downloader. I do have my camer set to rotate my portrait images.
    I think the issue is solved, and I really do appreciate you help.
    Cheers,
    Rob 😄
