Rotating multiple photos

I hope this isn't a stupid question, I've been using Capture One (11) for a few months and lurking on this community.

I work for a record office and I'm currently digitising some 3000 photos.  They're all the same size, give or take a couple of mm. 

It's driving me nuts that applying the rotation from the first image to all the others seems to work so poorly.  Almost every photo still has to be adjusted manually.  Yet all the photos are the same size, they all have the same border.  Is there something I'm missing?  I guess this isn't what Capture One was designed to do - does the Cultural Heritage version do it better?

Edit:  this is resolved.  A colleague explained that the software can't "see" where the image is, so when you rotate the first image and apply the rotation to the others, all the software is doing is rotating every other image the same amount, no matter what its original angle was.  So now I'm creating a physical frame into which each photo can slot, to ensure each one is digitised at the same angle.
