Use whatever you want.
Just make sure that you made the images during 2007.

Hi Jim,

I think you're not totally clear on the camera's allowed.
i understand that any camera is still allowed. But I think Mark is 
thinking the opposite.
Please state the rules in a way they can only be interpreted in one way.

Best regards,

Michiel Fokkema
