"At Best, Accuracy Leads to Fair and Accurate Representation"
2008/6/11
形式:ハードカバー
"Forensic Photography: The Importance of Accuracy", Sanford L. Weiss, NJ, Pearson Education, Inc. (Prentice Hall), 2009 ISBN: 13: 978-0-13-158286-6, HC 503 pgs. plus Contents, 14 pgs., Ref., 7 pgs., Glossary 23 pgs., Index 11 pgs., and numerous B/W photographs. 10 " x 8 ".
Author Sanford Weiss is an experienced forensics investigator & photographer with impressive credentials and decades of `on the job' investigatory work as photographer/investigator. He is a prolific writer of technical articles and a recipient of prestigious awards in evidence photography. This book should serve to be a reference and teaching guide for those interested in forensic photography, whether an individual, department or used in a teaching institute. Not available for review at this time is information of the book-specific "Companion Website" with review material, additional photo examples and Supplements which are believed to include Instructor's Manual and PowerPoint and access to color photos! NFD.
"Forensic Photography" was a monumental undertaking for one man, but this strengthens the very substance of a book which is highly technical, divided into subsections for easy reference, and covers the A to Z of the fields of photography and forensics. In 17 chapters the entirety of the field is nicely covered with discussion of photography essentials in forensics; digital & conventional camera types; divers ancillary equipment and lighting methodologies; macro, video, 3-D & underwater imaging techniques; plus the photography of fires, accidents & crime scenes in addition to courtroom testimony.
The author embedded a number of excellent case synopses involving crane, bus, train, truck, car, & airplanes including TWA 800, etc. The text has numerous B/W photographs and referenced diagrams to complement the text. For clarity and consistency a comprehensive glossary of terminologies is provided. Throughout, the theme of fair and accurate representation is stressed - for in forensic photography, photographic charm is meaningless, only the Truth in imaging reigns, and here... beauty IS the truth in imaging.

A Great Forensics Book
2008/7/8
形式:ハードカバー
As a Forensics Photographer, I have nothing but praise for Sandy and this book. It's very well written and covers just about everything someone would need to know to make it in this profession. I highly recommend this book to anyone already in Forensics, or looking to get into it.

Most thorough Forensic Photography book available! Instant Hit!
2008/6/18
形式:ハードカバー
The thoroughness begins with the cover, straight and to the point. This is forensics. This is photography. No way to confuse the topic. I've spent years looking for that one (1) book that could teach me Forensic Photography in its entirety. I've now found it. No need to read any of the other books available, and frankly none are with as much focus, direction and knowledge shared as this book by Mr Weiss. His insight into what a student really needs to learn is most impressive! The books approach and style are second to none. The book is written by one man, but it seems like the reader is gaining an entire degree, from many professors with many years of experience. No reason to ever waste money on another book of the same subject. This is well worth the investment and more importantly its' return of investment is already paying off! Thank you to the Author! Thank you Sanford Weiss for penning this book and sharing your wisdom. An instant hit in my opinion!
