INTRODUCTION: Endoscopic digital photography usually involves expensive and often cumbersome equipment. AIM: This study aimed to construct a low cost adaptor with which to connect a budget-priced digital camera to a nasal endoscope, in order to enable inexpensive, good quality otology photography. METHOD: A method of making an adaptor from a simple plastic bottle top is described, and the photographic technique is outlined. RESULTS: The adaptor fitted well with commonly used endoscopes, and excellent results were obtained. CONCLUSION: High quality digital endoscopic photographs can be obtained using a low cost compact digital camera fitted with a simple adaptor made from a plastic bottle top. Such a method would make digital photography via a rigid endoscope easily affordable worldwide. |
