Safety Information; Regulations; Features - Canon CR-1 Operation Manual

1. Features

The Canon CR-1 digital retinal camera is used to take digital photographic retinal images of patient's eyes
across a wide range (photographic angle of view of 45 degrees) in a naturally dilated state without the use
of mydriatics. It has the following features.
Compact size and superior operability
Compact dimensions and a light weight.
Since the main unit can be raised and lowered by the operation lever, and the chin rest became motor-
driven, the alignment procedure has dramatically improved.
Function for photographing small pupils supported
The camera can photograph small pupils when their field angle is 45° and the diameter is ø4 mm or more.
If it is hard to dilate the pupil of a patient's eye, the small pupil photography function enables photographs
to be taken of pupils with a diameter of ø3.7 mm or more.
Optimum system for digital photography
By using the Retinal imaging control software NM system that is optimized for digital photography
(hereinafter called "control software"), the images photographed by the CR-1 can be browsed, processed,
stored, output to the DICOM storage server, exported to DICOM files and output to an inkjet printer.
High-speed image transfer is enabled using the USB 2.0 interface. In addition, depending on the
photograph condition, flash intensity and EOS digital camera are automatically set and other steps are
taken so as to optimize the photography work flow.
High-picture-quality, high-definition diagnostic images
Diagnostic images with a high picture quality and high definition can be obtained by using an EOS digital
camera which incorporates a large, high-definition CMOS sensor.
