That file has exif for Software as being adobe, but the field for camera model is blank.
It could be that the camera didn't record exif. Or maybe the original author intentionally removed the original metadata due to privacy concerns. Or perhaps it was unintentionally removed. Guess we can't really know without asking the original author.

That's interesting. Do you have an example I could see?
There are supposed to be two separate fields - one for camera (Actually 2 separate fields for make and model of camera), and one for software used to process the image.
Ultimately though, if adobe is doing that, there's not really anything we can do about it.

I see many images on Commons that have replaced info about the camera with info about the processing in Adobe tools. I don't know where exactly that camera metadata is getting stripped out, but I wish that it would be left intact after processing in Adobe tools and uploading to Commons.

Good idea. I see a lot of EXIF and my hunch is that we would prefer that format, especially if the license data can be made to stick even after a photo has gone through image postprocessing in tools like the Adobe
suite.

Adobe is the inventor of XMP. Photoshop is probably the most complete implementation of XMP in existence.
I'm not that familiar with photoshop, but its highly likely that it properly maintains both exif and XMP metadata after any post processing.
We prefer Exif and XMP equally (See also my other email). https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:EXIF has some info about how things work at commons.
