In this paper, we proposed a method for configuring each component of a gel documentation system for the miniaturization and penetration of the system. To miniaturize the UV illuminator part, the minimum type of UVB lamp was adopted along with ballasts that can drive four lamps. As the imaging system, a conventional compact digital camera, which has a similar performance to that of a DSLR, was adopted. By developing and supplementing the PC remote control function of which lack in the low-end digital camera, the price and size of the gel doc equipment can be significantly reduced while still maintaining the performance and function of the gel doc. The proposed system showed comparable performance and image quality to those of the existing Gel documentation system even though if it was small and inexpensive.
