The video was taken with a Sony Handycam on maximum non-digital zoom. Click the images to run the YouTube videos. If you are able to run the two videos side-by-side note that the clock in the zoomed view is on Romanian time while the clock in the side view is on UK time, two hours behind - otherwise they are exactly synchronised. The still shots were taken with a Tamron 500mm mirror lens with a 2x converter and a Pentax P30n film camera using Kodachrome 64 film.
