Orientation Photography in Forensics

ABSTRACT: Crime scene photography, part of forensic photography, knows several procedures. They are usually divided into two categories - general procedures and special procedures. In particular, the general shooting procedures, as their name suggests, are applicable and are carried out in all cases where research is carried out on the spot, and their importance is emphasized by this feature. This is also the reasoning for which, in this paper, I set out to present the first general procedure of forensic photography that takes place on the spot, namely orientation photography. In the presentation of this topic, I will approach in detail the description of this procedure and its membership in forensic photography, the criteria that must be met by the photography equipment, and some rules of execution that must be taken into account.
