Scale Bed Type Focusing is made by calculating or
estimating distance of object to be
photographed. Focusing ring is adjusted to
corresponding estimated distance.

Shutter is expressed in a fraction of a
second. The different shutter speeds are:
1 or 1/1 sec, 60 or 1/60 sec,
2 or 1/2 sec, 125 or 1/125 sec,
4 or 1/4 sec, 250 or 1/250,
8 or 1/8 sec, 500 or 1/500 sec,

30 or 1/30 sec, 2000 or 1/2000

melcon s. lapina, mscrim 41


Camera shutters often include one or
two other settings for making very long
exposures:
B (for bulb) — keeps shutter open as
long as shutter release is held.
T (for time) — keeps shutter open
until shutter release is pressed again.

Evidence Close-up Photographs

 Evidence close-up photographs are


exposed with a "macro" lens (50mm,
55mm or 105mm).
 Their function is to allow the viewer to
see all evident detail on the item of
evidence.
 You have to get close and fill the frame
with the evidence itself.
 They are taken with and without a scale.

melcon s. lapina, mscrim 69


Evidence Close-up Example

 Taken both with


and without a scale
of reference.

 Get close and fill


the frame of the
camera.

melcon s. lapina, mscrim 70


Evidence Close-up Example

Very important when


taking photos of small
items, whose detail
may affect another
analysis.

Ensure a good focus,


make the picture
sharp.

melcon s. lapina, mscrim 71


Photograph Methodology

1. Document the entire scene in-situ as soon as


possible using overall photographs.
2. Photograph all fragile evidence as soon as
possible.
3. In the documentation stage, photograph all
known evidence using evidence establishing
and evidence close-up photos.
4. As items are discovered in later stages, return
and document them fully, including
additional overall photographs if needed.

melcon s. lapina, mscrim 72


Photograph Methodology

5. Create photographs that fully demonstrate


the results of additional examinations (e.g.
latent prints, bloodstain pattern analysis,
trajectory analysis).
6. Always use a film roll reference card on the
first shot of each roll to demonstrate admin
data.
7. Always use a crime scene photo log.

melcon s. lapina, mscrim 73


Some Important Terms

1. Chromatic Difference of
Magnification – The inability of the
lens to produce image sizes of objects
with different colors.
2. Depth of Focus – It is the distance
toward and away from the film that
the lens can be moved at a given f-
value and the object still appears in
interior.
melcon s. lapina, mscrim 74
Some Important Terms

3. Hyperfocal Distance – The nearest space


at which a lens is focused with a given
particular diaphragm opening which will
give the maximum depth of field.
4. Macrophotography – The photography of
a subject so that the final image is either
unmagnified or magnified to no more than
10 times the object.

melcon s. lapina, mscrim 75


Some Important Terms

5. Microphotography – It is the facsimile of


photographs in which the image of an
object is reproduced much smaller than it
actually is.
6. Photomicrography – Photography
showing initial magnifications when the
camera is used in relation with a
microscope.

melcon s. lapina, mscrim 76


Some Important Terms

7. Photomacrography – Making large


pictures of small subjects by using a
short-focal-length lens on a long-
bellows camera.
8. Relative Aperture – The light
gathering power of the lens,
expressed in the F-number system.
