Those are probably saner than most. Depending on manufacturer the exif
model will include or not include the manufacturer name so the exif
names are not ideal for most user-facing purposes.

I only had a very quick look but it seemed fine to me. I'd say the we
should either use camera_makermodel (which has camera_maker+"
"+camera_model) or do camera_maker+" "+camera_alias as that's the
commercial name for the specific camera. Calling that
$(CAMERA_MAKERMODEL) or even just $(CAMERA) makes more sense than
using EXIF_ as these are not really the values straight from the exif.

As for submitting the patch ideally you'd do a pull request on github.
It's easier to review there and that way you actually get credited in
the commit history. If that's too inconvenient a patch attached to
email as you've already done also works.

Cheers,

Pedro
