  But is it really ambiguous? If it states "Canon", "EOS 70D" or "Nikon", "D5000 <https://phabricator.kde.org/D5000>", there isn't much room for interpretation. Also, "Equipment" is not really fitting very well - what about the lense, what about the tripod, the flash(es)? And what/who would a "Photo manufacturer" be? We are talking about digital images here.
  
  The more I think about it, the more I dislike the enum renaming - reusing a strange name from some widely used standard is one thing, but inventing a new one I don't consider a good idea.
