Hi Andres,
The attached image shows my first digital camera (dug out of a shoe box ;-). There have been a few upgrades to a DSLR Canon EOS 2000D which is a pleasure to snap with and delivers 24MP images. I still get out now and then to do some camera CN. I prefer to attach a Bris sextant to a 35mm vintage lens and time stamp the shot when the reflected sun is split by the natural horizon. This way an electronic dark room and laptop are not needed to generate an azimuth and intercept.
