    when i shoot some object from above, often the orientation of the
    resulting photo is unexpected. if i turn phone (tablet) to one of 4
    directions for more than some degrees like 30, resulting photo becomes
    gravitationally orientated. if the decline is to opposite/above side,
    from vertical (default phone) orientation, preview does not change.
    (so, cannot be predicted). if the decline is to left or right, preview
    changes a little after photo orientation changes. (so, cannot be
    predicted). when orientation is changed, and then the device is turned
    back until reaching straight "shoot from above" position, the photo
    orientation is kept in last state. (so, can be forgotten).

    i want to predict and change the orientation of resulting photo from preview.

    You can see the orientation, though not always immediately obvious, through the Icons/UI orientation. But I think we should have additional toggleable UI elements for many things that are important to many users, but not all.
    For your use case:
    1. Prior to recording: A lock button for locking the orientation prior to shooting
    2. During recording: A rotate left right by 90 degrees icon
    3. During recording: A rotate by 180 degrees icon
    4. During recording: [Maybe] A flip horizontally icon?

      i thought only about making photo. not video.

      i understand button to lock but before locking, i would want to see
      orientation, via an indicator.

      an option is to write "(there will be) the bottom of the image" in one side
      of the preview.
