Hello Tim, When you get a printcomposer, the standard is A4 - landscape. Your screencanvas is also landscape (for standard setup).
Then changing the orientation to portrait your image will change, and need to redraw the canvas and perhaps also change the scale. I made a small video http://screencast.com/t/xE1rQrMIVEm Hope this will answer your question.

I was expecting that it gets the extend from the QGIS main window.
