EXIF detail error

Description

When looking af EXIF data in the picture view, there is a small problem with the "camera model". It seems that the camera brand like Canon or Nikon is written twice. Fx it writes "Camera Model Canon Canon PowerShot? S200" instead of "Camera Model Canon PowerShot? S200". In other words - it writes Canon twice.

This isn't actually a bug in the code, just a quirk in the way Canon generates EXIF data for thier pictures. I think our EXIF library generates the camera name by concatenating the company name with the camera model. Canon must've tagged thier camera name as "Canon Powershot". Therefore, the camera name is "Canon" + "Canon Powershot". I uploaded some pictures from different cameras and they didn't have this problem.

Ok, that makes sense
