I have never had to do this before, what is it the SC is looking for and how do I get it to them. I know I have to send the original file, thats not the problem, do they need the info that I can read on the camera, if so how do i send that to them. Any help would be much appreciated.

| On the email they sent you there is a link. Click on that. Write in the processing steps you took and attach your original file. The one that hasn't been edited. They will be able to read the EXIF information embedded in that file. |

Yes make sure it is the original that was on your card. Don't rotate it or anything in windows
Just send in your original and you're done.
Then take a deep breath and keep breathing for about 48 hours ;) Good luck!

that is correct. in the future, keep an UNROTATED, unmodified-in-any-way original.

| What if your camera is set to auto-rotate portrait-oriented shots? That doesn't affect the RAW, right? (Since the file seen on the camera is a JPEG.) |

Your camera doesn't actually "ROTATE" the photo with that setting. What it does, is add a flag to the image's EXIF data that informs the camera (and apps like PS and Windows) what orientation the photo was taken in. The camera then displays the photo at the correct orientation. But, unlike the Rotate command in PS or windows, it doesn't actually modify the image file (so if you viewed the file using a program that doesn't read those EXIF flags, it would be viewed at the incorrect orientation, i.e. landscape). |
