Steps to reproduce the bug

On my Samsung S5, the camera preview does strange things: When you flip the phone to horizontal, the preview suddenly switches to vertical, so you'd have to bend your head sideways to see the motive in its correct alignment.

If you click on "video" the preview switches to landscape, as it should be. But tilt the phone to vertical and back, and the problem reappears.

Now switch to photo mode: Problem is fixed, preview is as it should be. Tilt the phone to vertical and back to horizontal, and the problem is there again.

Repeat.

Expected behavior

Obvioulsy, when you hold the phone horizontally, you expect the phone to show a horizontal preview.

Actual behavior

The photos made when holding the phone horizontally are actually landscape, so that's how it should be. It's just the preview that's broken. Tried to play with the available option but found nothing that fixed it.
