Sarah,
Topcon has a bottom line slit lamp camera our optoms are using. Several years 
ago it was right around $5K, so would probably be more now, but worth a look, 
really still frame video. No real strobe but has a background light which is 
missing on a conversion.

Optimalers,

I am looking for an inexpensive slit lamp camera solution.  I've heard
of systems where you can take out the eyepiece of a slit lamp and then
put in an adapter that will allow you to connect it to your camera.
The photographer/doctor would then take a picture using the capture
button on the camera.

Does anybody know who makes these adapters?  And which cameras are
best to connect them to?

I'm open to other inexpensive (hoping for less than ~$5,000) slit lamp
camera solutions as well!

Thanks,

Sarah
