If I remember correctly, this is perfectly normal for some DSLR files, they're just read/written that way. All stacking software should handle this without an issue so it's purely cosmetic.
ok I see but I have read the cr2 properties via exiftool and it is reporting:
Camera Orientation : Rotate 270 CW
The autorotate in the camera is off
