Building a Digital Archive:The Camera Basics • Our goal is to obtain a large DIGITAL ARCHIVE of files containing the amazing cases we see in our PER • You first need to obtain written consent for taking the Photos/Videos (using the specific pre-formatted consent form) • Ask for a blank CD, initialize, and take as many pics/vids as you like • BE SURE to take a picture of the face sheet of the chart (contains name, VS, CC) and also the consent form • When complete, you now have a complete digital archive of the case: name, MRN, demographic/clinical info, consent form and clinical pics/videos • Finalize your disc and PLEASE remember to give it to one of the attendings to copy onto their desktop (so the PER keeps a copy), however you may take the disc with you! • The following slides are a primer on the use of the camera
Located on top of the camera is the microphone, shutter release, power (on/off) switch and the combination Mode Dial. The Mode Dial has many operating positions. To simplify, all you need are: Camera icon – basic pictures Arrow icon – playback, review Filmstrip icon – videos SET UP – used to finalize when finished taking pics/vids – MUST be done in order for a computer to be able to read/open the files.

ADVANCED SETTINGS ON MODE DIAL: Scene Mode - camera picks the best settings for these situations: Twilight Twilight Portrait Landscape Portrait Snow Beach (M) Full Manual - you choose both the shutter speed and aperture. The values available are the same as below. (A) Aperture Priority - you pick the aperture, the camera picks the appropriate shutter speed. The choices range from F2 - F8 and will vary a bit depending on the focal range used. (S) Shutter Priority - you choose the shutter speed and the camera picks the correct aperture. You can choose from a number of speeds ranging from 8 sec - 1/1000 sec.
The CD500 is powered by a Sony NP-FM50 Info LITHIUM rechargeable 7.2v "battery with a brain" -- it tells you on the LCD exactly how many minutes of runtime you have left. Our camera has an extra battery and charger in the bag. Battery
CAMERA Final Words • Keep the camera, charger & the owner’s manual in the case • Keep it in the upper cabinet behind the work station. Do not forget to lock the cabinet. • Do not take the camera outside the PER without notification • Try your best to take as many pictures & movies as you can – they are great for Case Conference • In general you get one chance while in the ER – remember to think about and do it!
