Bug Description
If I rotate an image in F-Spot it changes the original file, and changes the exif software tag to read "f-spot". All this is done without warning. My camera detects any photos with software tags different to the firmware of the camera as being corrupted. Thus photos viewed in f-spot can no longer be viewed on the original camera. Picasa is very good in this regard in that it never edits the original file. F-Spot should be the same. Currently I have to set my Photos folder to read-only to "save" my photos from f-spot!

F-Spot is supposed to save modified files under a different filename. Does this also happen when you crop a photograph?
