25
Used when photographing narrow and crowded spaces.
WIDE ANGLE LENS
26
Fixed lenses used in photographing long or far distances.
TELEPHOTO LENS
27
Lenses that enlarges object and magnify to 9x.
MACRO LENS
28
Lens which commonly used in regular photography.
NORMAL LENS
29
It can photograph from the shortest to the longest distance.
ZOOM LENS
30
Transforms the latent image into a visible image, makes this permanent and renders it in sensitive to light.
PHOTOGRAPHIC PROCESSING
31
A photographic bag specifically designed to be light-proof while in use.
CHANGING BAG
32
It is a room that can be made completely dark to allow the processing of light sensitive photographic material, including photographic film and photographic paper.
DARK ROOM
33
A light-tight container used for developing film.
DEVELOPING TANK
34
The film clips to the center of the reel and is gently rolled onto the reel in complete darkness.
STAINLESS STEEL REEL
35
36
The film is loaded from the outside and then wound onto the reel by rotating the reel with a back-and- forth motion.
PLASTIC REEL
37
One or more chemicals that convert the latent image to a visible image.
DEVELOPER
38
The most important compound in a developer and an organic compound which actually makes the latent image visible.
DEVELOPING AGENT
39
A chemical used for processing black- and-white photographic films, plates, and paper. It is used to neutralize the alkaline developer.
STOP BATH
40
A mix of chemicals used in the final step in the photographic processing of film or paper.
FIXER
41
An apparatus used for making contact prints, having a frame for holding printing paper and negative together and a light source for making an exposure.
CONTACT PRINTER
42
It is a photographic image produced by laying the negative, typically a negative, directly against photographic paper and exposing the paper to light.
CONTACT PRINTING
43
A card of other opaque object is held between the enlarger lens and the photographic paper so as to block light from only a portion of the image intended to be lightened.
DODGING
44
It is the elimination of some part of the negative which are not to include in positive.
CROPPING
45
This is where a portion of a print is too bright after the main exposure.
BURNING
46
The higher the head the bigger the size of the image and vice versa.
ENLARGING
47
Final stage in making photograph.
PRINT MAKING
48
Electromagnetic spectrum from about 400 nanometers to 1 nanometer. Provides more details to an injured area as well as the revealing bruises and scars and to detect alterations of documents.
ULTRAVIOLET PHOTOGRAPHY
49
Uses in Law enforcement: for photographic enhancement of rashes and other skin disorders; and for detecting alterations in documents.
REFLECTIVE UV PHOTOGRAPHY (RUP)
50
Commonly used in forensics to detect and document biological substances (such as blood, semen, and other bodily fluids) at crime scenes.
UV FLUORESCENCE PHOTOGRAPHY (UFP)
51
Yes or No. Does infrared visible to human eye?
NO
52
What are the three (3) important things on developing photos.
DEVELOPER, STOP BATH , AND FIXER
53
He discovered the infrared radiation on 1800
William Herschel
54
Closer to the microwave section on the electromagnetic spectrum, can be felt as intense heat, such as the heat from sunlight or fire, according to NASA.
LONGER "FAR-INFRARED" WAVES
55
Closer to visible light on the electromagnetic spectrum, don't emit any detectable heat and are what's discharged from a TV remote control to change the channels.
SHORTER "NEAR-INFRARED" WAVES
56
Used by crime scene investigators as a non destructive test for examining gunshot residue (GSR) on dark and multi-colored fabrics found at the crime scene.
INFRARED PHOTOGRAPHY
57
A liquid that is used to reveal the bloodstains of a crime scene. An organic compound that exhibits chemiluminescence, or a glowing quality, when mixed with the iron found in blood.
LUMINOL
58
An even more detailed use of infrared technology in forensics. It allows forensic analysts to figure out exactly what a piece of trace evidence is made up of.
INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY
59
Is used as night vision devices, but at a higher magnification. These systems scan for visible light in night time settings and absorb it. This light is then magnified and depicted in images with a greenish tint.  Requires nearby visible light.
NIGHT VISION
60
A basic technology that works in the same way as a regular camera but amplifies any light available.
IMAGE INTENSIFIER
61
Is simply the process of converting infrared (IR) radiation (heat) into visible images that depict the spatial distribution of temperature differences in a scene. Is another useful technique used in law enforcement. people can be detected in complete darkness.
