I'd also check to make sure it has the latest firmware.

The fact that the joystick doesn't work correctly is worrying.

Yep, you're right, it was on 1.22

I ran the update to 1.3 after your message but images are still very bright.

As for the joystick, the seller warned me about it. he said only the up direction works flawlessly. turns out up and right work perfectly, left is ok 90% of the time, and down seems dead.
It had to do with a wave splash.

He was selling it pretty much for parts, so i bought it without expecting much to be honest (150 USD)

With exposure compensation, i can trick the camera and get decent images, but it's a guess game with every shot.
