What do you do if you can't fit the whole body in one picture
when taking overall photos? ANS >>> Take one picture when
standing at the elbow and another picture standing at the
knees. These can later be put together to form one picture.
What type of overall photographs needs to be taken? ANS >>>
The overall photographs need to be from the exterior and
interior of the scene.
If you want to fill the frame with a face, while remaining back a
distance that does not enlarge the nose, it is best to use a lens
in the: ANS >>> 100- to 120mm focal length, which is the
perfect portraiture lens focal length range.
, What is the proper viewpoint to avoid perspective distortion in
midrange photographs? ANS >>> Make sure your fixed object
and the evidence item are equal distance from you to avoid
distortion.
What is the purpose of a photo log and how do you use one?
ANS >>> Photo logs are required by every agency and are used
to record every photograph taken on scene; they can jog your
memory and help determine what went wrong in a photo. The
photograph number and the description of the picture is the
minimum that needs to be recorded.
How should the body panorama series be taken (in order)?
ANS >>> Right side, left side, head to toe, toe to head,
overhead & full face for identification.

on the same plane or parallel to the evidence? Why is this
important? ANS >>> When taking a close-up picture with a
scale, the scale should be on the same plane as the evidence,
not diagonal to or parallel. This ensures proper perspective so
that the size is not distorted. This also ensures both the
evidence and scale are properly lit and in focus.
