Will the Camera Uploads feature recognize duplicate photos from multiple devices?

Will camera upload recognize duplicate photos when uploading from iPad and iPhone?

    Hi Jeff K.28, files aren't connected to each other on Dropbox. So, if you delete a file in the camera uploads folder, this won't affect any other files located elsewhere on your account.

Thank you for clearing that up. Can you answer another question? If a photo has been saved to different folder than camera uploads in Dropbox if that photo is deleted from camera uploads will it still remain in the other folder?
