look into convert "man convert" I use it for bash converting images and creating thumbnails....if the camera put the orientation data in the jpg, then you could look at that and decide whether or not to rotate it.
I found GUI image browsers to be too slow to get anything done, and in most cases, modifying the image destroys it...at least with the ones I've tried. Always make a backup before mass-modifications.
