Topcon Introduces New DC-3 Digital Camera for SL-D Series Slit Lamps

Topcon Medical Systems, Inc.

PARAMUS, NJ, April 9, 2008 – Topcon Medical Systems, Inc. (TMS), of Paramus, NJ, is pleased to introduce the new DC-3, an integrated digital camera attachment, designed to work exclusively with Topcon’s SL-D Series Digital Slit Lamps.

The DC-3 offers an improved 8 megapixels of resolution for clear, crisp images and the highest quality digital documentation.

The DC-3 can be easily mounted into the optical path of any “D” Series Topcon Slit Lamp. Internal cabling and connections create a neat, uncluttered look while the omni-directional joystick with incorporated flash activation frees the operator’s other hand for easy patient positioning.

All settings on the DC-3, including ISO sensitivity and image size, etc., are software driven, making image capture and manipulation extremely fast and easy. There are no controls on the camera body itself, thereby creating a clean, modern appearance.

The DC-3 also features a multiple shot mode, allowing for multiple exposures with a single push of the joystick trigger. Several images are quickly taken at pre-set intervals for complete coverage. Later, the best images can be selected from the captured sequence.

In addition to still images, the DC-3 can capture dynamic video images that are useful in contact lens fitting, fluorescein staining and other diagnostic procedures.
