How to take X-ray films using Omnia II

[Guest collect_sampah]

Hi!

Can anyone tell me how to capture X-ray films / radiographs using our Omnia II. I tried to take several photos of radiographs which were hung on the X-ray box which uses flourescent tube backlighting. However, my camera always capture the flickers no matter how which camera setting I used. In the end, all photos has black stripes in it.

I am not the expert but its the florescent lite !!

A florescent lite actually flickers 60 time a second and the camera catches it. It really does!!

The light source I believe would have to incandescent or halogen or xenon .

Well thats my 1 cent of information

hope it helps

:( :(

I think you can take the sheet of white paper and attach it to the back side of the film. Then go to the window and stick it to the glass.

Now you can do the photo without stripes - the sun has no blinking like fluorescent tube.

Thanks! That's what I did previously but it has to be on a sunny day. At nite I used my LCD monitor, put on a white screen and attached the X-ray film on it. However, at my workplace, I can't do it bcos I don't carry my notebook with me, so it's difficult to use the 'stick to Window' method at nite. I thought asking you guys if anyone know how to tweak the camera settings.

just a wild guess, but have you tried forcing the camera to use flash?

even if the main light source's fluctuation interferes with the picture, the flash ought to provide enough illumination?!
