WTF? My cellphone camera is BACKWARDS

Taken with my Canon Powershot A510 (normal)
Taken with my Samsung SCH-A670 (backwards)

You can see the keyboard and PocketPC and speaker volume stand are all backwards! WTF is going on?

I'll have to take it to the Verizon store sometime this week.

EDIT: apparently the volume thingie on the side of the phone triggers this.

I've looked through every menu I can find. Not there.

i have the A670, and yes IT DOES have mirror settings, and the ability to flip upside down. Press the volume thing on the left side of the phone while in camera mode to adjust it.

Stupid question, but did you take the picture with the camera opened or closed??

Holy sh!t! I never knew that...neat feature, but I couldn't find it in any of the documentation I looked at!

ah pretty soon you'll realize that your phone camera is utterly useless. i had fun with my T610 for the first few months but then i realized it's more of a toy.

btw i hate the 670 cuz u cant turn off the annoying shutter sound.

also there's a way to get real nice ringtones on the phone, u just convert mp3->wav->ppd (the type of file thats used to record voice notes), and BAM! u got sweet mp3 sounding ringtones.

Heh, I've had it for a year. I barely ever use the camera feature, except for my rainbow thread tonight.

It wouldn't be a problem if you stopped trying to take upskirts.
