metadata - Exif Data - identifiable fields

Often times, a batch of images come in with a mixture of metadata (but look as though they may be from a similar artist/user).


There are obvious ones like Author and Make/Model, but I wondered which other fields contain unique information - or at least ones that could potentially identify picture A as not being taken by the same device as picture B was taken with.
