To be honest I'd not recommend a camera if you are ONLY using it for trophy shots.
I'm on my 3rd DSLR now, which will in the semi near future be replaced by a mirrorless camera.
Reason is I take thousands of shots of things that are not a carp, so to me that's well worth spending the money on.
I'll take my D500 +2/3 lenses with me when I go fishing for wildlife shots etc.
BUT, I've got a smartphone holder which sits on my tripod, quick easy setup. Add two soft tone lights for night shots if required and you are set.
Get the position/angle/height right, and use a voice command to take the photo, job done. You will get the hang of that in no time and it will cost you peanuts.
The camera on almost all recent years phones will do the job, if not on yours, consider upgrading your phone instead!

Actually, if you are early and there is space, you are on the next available. (at times we've pulled up and boarded instantly, crossing inc boarding in 45 mins anyone?)
Also the reverse applies, if you are late you dont get stung for a new ticket, again you are on the next available.
This comes from using the tunnel multiple times a year of the last 15 years, I'd never use the ferry unless forced...
