Carleton Ltd., the authorised UK distributor and service agent for Canon, has launched the Canon CR-2 non-mydriatic digital retinal camera in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland.
The CR-2 incorporates Canon EOS digital SLR technology enhanced to create a unique 15.1-megapixel digital camera dedicated to medical retinal imaging.
The re-engineered ergonomic design of the Canon CR-2 has resulted in a small, light-weight instrument, weighing just 15 kilogram, which is intuitive, flexible and easily transportable.
The latest in LED technology ensures greater patient comfort, replacing the strobe tube in the new automatic exposure flash light and reducing the flash intensity. This in turn improves reliability, reduces patient recovery time and eliminates the need to retake images due to incorrect flash exposure, resulting in faster screening.
The advanced digital filter technology featured in the Canon CR-2 means that the images obtained are now comparable in quality to those achieved with optical filters. The new Anterior Photography mode uses an additional compensator lens that makes anterior segment photography a quick and easy procedure.
The Canon CR-2 comes with the latest version of the Canon Retinal Imaging Control Software suite (RICS) that supports Windows 7. For more information on the CR2 and the entire range of Canon retinal cameras, contact Carleton Ltd. on 01494 775811.
