The things to focus on for efficient clinical photography. "Focus" is actually one of them! But, is it manual focus, or auto-focus?
The three parts to an exposure: F Stop, Shutter Speed, and ISO setting. There are, of course, other variables, but these are the key components to work on your camera.
A higher resolution camera is NOT the goal. The goal is a camera that you can USE.
Todd goes over digital dental photography. This was recorded for the DDA for their fundraiser during the Covid Pandemic. PLEASE KNOW THAT THERE IS A RUNNING JOKE THROUGHOUT! PUNCH LINE AT THE VERY END! :)
Taking photographs with a DSLR seems like over-kill BUT you get so much better information that the patient can understand. Plus, you get the same quality and consistency over the years of your practice!
A book for your waiting room that shows the power of digital dentistry!
The Primescan and the Omnicam are also excellent still cameras or video cameras. Todd demonstrates how to use this feature and also how to export the pictures or video.
