Description: Crime Photographer's Handbook is an intensive, hands-on photography course specifically for police investigators. Battle-tested techniques are described in step-by-step detail, and photographs, charts, and diagrams clarify specific applications. Lending credibility and levity to the lessons are anecdotes from the author's 20-year career with the FBI. They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Make sure that your photos say the right thing when they are called into evidence.
Find out from a pro how to select and use the right camera film, lenses and filters; capture indoor and outdoor crime scenes and surveillances regardless of weather or lighting; preserve latent fingerprints, tire tracks, shoeprints and other fragile evidence on film; document homicide, rape, burglary and arson scenes; and much more. This FBI photographer's professional secrets will teach you how to get the kind of photos guaranteed to identify the bad guys, document their crimes and convince juries of their guilt.
