You can see a demo screenshot with EXIF data here:
I don't know the EXIF format, but "flashUsed" is shown twice (numerically and as string). Maybe this is a minor glitch within the used code. I'm sure people would report that as Wikipedia bug shortly after releasing this feature :)
Actually, it's "FlashUsed" -> 0 and "flashUsed" -> "No". The EXIF data is essentially free-form, decided by the manufacturer of the camera (though it can be edited after capture with some tools too, of course).
The main problem is that a lot of cameras use quite odd names for some of their fields, that there are very few bits of EXIF data that are actually particularly useful, and that a lot of the more useful ones are in fact not generated (I'm thinking of the standard names for GPS co-ordinates - automagical location-generation would be terribly cool, though a bit of a privacy risk for users, of course).
I'm interested to see what Magnus will decide to do with the data.
