I used a Sony Handycam HDR-CX240. These pictures were only shot in 2.1 megapixels but the camera has a 54x digital zoom. It can take up to 9.2 megapixels, but I only had a 32 MB memory card on me at the time - so I took smaller pictures to save space on my card. I was an idiot & forgot my better memory card at home. It would have looked even better with a higher resolution, but I'm happy I got what I did. For a light filter, I simply taped a part of my "eclipse glasses" over the camera lens. It seems to have worked out well enough - but it was definitely not a "pro" set-up, at all.
