"They are saying that you can't even sell this camera, ever, because the license to use the firmware is not transferable."
Skep, IANAL, but is it clear that a second-hand buyer of the camera needs a license to use the firmware? Obviously the first buyer has agreed to the license. But the second-hand buyer does not make any copies of the firmware, and he should not need a license just to use it.
