they used camrecorders :)

____________________________________________________ Real Answer: 1) If the question refers to the making of the movie, it used standard motion picture technology which has been in existence for more than a century, with an ample dose of computer-generated special effects to make an army (or a king) look larger than the real-life equivalent. 2) If the question refers to the technologies used in the Battle of Thermopylae in 480 BC, they used Bronze Age tech. A lot of what you see in the movie was less than accurate. The Persian Army had war elephants, but there is no record that the Greeks encountered them until more than a century later. Xerxes' unit of grenadiers is also unlikely, as gunpowder was probably unknown at that time.
