This presentation covered which SLR camera to buy, the lenses, the flash and all the settings required to take exceptional dental photos.  Covering both clinical and technical aspects we looked at framing the shot, editing and storing and then using these shots in the lab and surgery.  Photography can be used both legally and for marketing purposes and these areas were also covered.  Also discussed was using your SLR out of the dental world and how to achieve professional quality shots from just understanding your SLR better for your kids, weddings and holidays.
