Abstract
This chapter looks at the use of digital cameras for evidential photography within the medical and forensic arenas. It briefly covers the day-to-day generic photographic issues such as composition and exposures, through to digital working practices, including camera choices and lenses and the terminology and technology such as sensor types and file structures. It also briefly looks at more specialist photographic applications for the recording of injuries or other latent evidence, such as cross-polarized illumination, reflected ultraviolet, and induced fluorescence. Finally it will look at the role of image production and digital storage and overall image quality.
