Help Samsung Galaxy SIII Camera Mirror Help

I have the Samsung Galaxy SIII from Sprint and when I take a camera using the front facing camera it mirrors the image and I do not want that to happen. I have tried looking everywhere for information on how to turn that off, I have read that in some software versions of the phone there is an option for you to turn it off in the camera options and it is called 'saved flipped option', but my version does not have that option. So I was hoping that someone would be able to tell me a way to turn the camera flip mirror thing off because it is driving me insane! Thank you so, so much.
 
Might be for the International S3 which I believe has Jelly Bean now. I looked in my phones options and haven't seen that option. Sorry. :(
 
Checked mine - International version. Front camera shows flipped image on screen but my taken photo is correct way round.

I have a camera option 'Save as flipped' which is currently set to 'Off'

Oh and I'm currently on 4.1.2 leaked ROM.
 
Hello Nicoleyn, I am using Android 4.1.1 and if you explore the settings of your camera (the first symbol on top left "wheel" shaped), you should find "save as flipped" option...just set it as ON and your problem should be solved. In my case it works. Please note that by default the option is OFF and the image is saved "mirrored" just like you are in front ao a looking glass.....
