If you cut one side off of a can, leaving the bottom and top intact and a lip around the side, you can put a candle inside and it will reflect light out towards the opening. It wouldn't be too difficult, but be careful of the sharp edges. It would also be a disposable item, as it isn't too strong and it will get hot aswell, so watch your fingers!

You want one with a good zoom lense - at least 5x. Look for at least 4Million Pixels and at least 5x OPTICAL zoom (digital zoom is pointless). I use a Kodak Z740 which you can get for under £200 and has 10x zoom, uses ordinary AA batts and has £5 million pixels

A pair of tin snips or a sturdy pair of scissor that you don't mind getting blunted a bit! Use an old pair, they should do the job. If you make a small hole in the middle of the can and cut slits outwards like a spider web, you can then fold these bits back and you'll make a safe edge as opposed to a sharp edge.
