Configuration of lenses for digital SLR camera, for intraoral photography?

Question

I own a coanon eos400d. I am a dental surgeon and need to take intraoral (Photos of teeth inside bthe mouth). I am thoroughly confused with the range of lenses avaliable. Which macro lense can serve my purpose? Need detailed guidance.

Answer 1

The nikkor 60 millimeter AFS will definitely help you. You can  order one from nikonusa.com . However, you need to check with cannon for the lens mount.

If you will be photographing dental curvatures, then I suggest, you consider building a white box. This will make sure that you get enough light to reflect into the mouth. Using a flash is definitely out of contention.

Since you will be shooting dark areas, I suggest you configure the camera manually. Keep the shutter on for about 10 seconds to ensure your lens captures enough light.
