Your answer speaks to a greater question as I am just now hopping on my own instrument after our chief imager has gone back to NC. Why do some people swap out the lens all of the time, 55 to 30, and some just leave the 55 on and optically reduce it on the keypad. Pros and cons to both? Please speak!!

Look OK, but don't fit right, or are not read by the software. Happened a couple times at Bascom, but he were swapping out several times a day, everyday.

It is larger than the 30.

Anyway to capture a still and go back to existing movie running in the background? Also, for some reason, just yesterday, my 55 lens won’t snap on to the front. D on’t ant to force it. The clips look fine. 30X mounts just fine. Anything might be going on that the 55 simply doesn’t want to bayonet on?

Is anyone out there grabbing still frames in the early phase of the FA, while running a movie, using Spectralis? I like the movie mode, but it’s grainy. I’d like to exit out of the movie in the early filling phase, grab a still frame, go back to the movie. Ok, what’s the trick? Seems like when we exit, I lose the movie… Denice Barsness, CRA, COMT, ROUB, CDOS, FOPS Ophthalmic Diagnostic Center CPMC Department of Ophthalmology 2100 Webster Street Suite 212 San Francisco CA 94115 (415) 600-3937 FAX (415) 600-6563
