Got a question. I was at the track last Friday night doing some recording of my buddy and his 05 GTO getting smacked around on the track, but I noticed I can't pick up the display lights at the traps to save my life. Just too much light glare, even for the night vision.

Is there a lens filter or something I can use to tone down the light output at the track at night so that I can get a clear shot of the display at the end of the track (I.E. Make the numbers clear and readable)??? If so, what's it called and where to get??

This is for a Sony Mini DV DCR-HC42 camcorder btw.
