i still have the same camera, and honestly as old as it it, the only thing the newer sony's T series have over it is pixel count. other than that its still plenty functional and bad ass, after all these years, and 5MP is enough for most uses.
its not too many rules, its to protect us from being overloaded with ebay auctions, like we are being over run with spam adds.
I suggect you fix it before your add gets deleted.
