Title: Shooting a film photo slit lamp into the digital age. Author: Tang K, Le Beck D, Weissman BK. Journal: Optom Vis Sci; 2006 Aug; 83(8):616-8. PubMed ID: 16909088. Abstract: PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to describe a method of taking a slit lamp initially designed for film photography and updating it to provide digital photographs. METHODS: A "how-to" guide is provided. RESULTS: Updating a Nikon FS-2 slit lamp is more economic than many practitioners may realize. By using what is already available on the market, a few steps can make a would-be dated instrument useful for many years to come. CONCLUSIONS: The upgrade to the Nikon FS-2 slit lamp is not only possible, but is able to functional well in the clinical setting and capture high-resolution photographs.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
