Camera
The system uses customised TWAIN software to integrate the Fuji S2 digital camera
into the DCS -
• 6.1million pixels
• Sensitive to low light levels for standard fluorescence (Quaser, Polylight, laser, crimelite, crimescope etc)
• Luminol photography (30 seconds, F 2.8 or less)
• Can be used hand held or on a tripod. Some fluorescence can also be hand held. This gives total flexibility both in the laboratory and at crime scenes.
• Auto download, authentication, saving and archiving of images captured on the digital media.
• Full integration to the Digital Image analysis software via automatic image authentication.
Fluorescence
The camera is fully compatible with all existing high intensity light sources, and has been tested with DFO, BY40, Rhodamine 6g, DMAC, Zinc Toner and some low light fluorescence such as coffee, detergent etc.
It is can be supplied with the new Crime Lite 4 x 4, this offers:-
• Narrow band emission in the blue, blue/green and green.
• White, wide band, emission, 400-
• Higher output than conventional filtered xenon or metal halide lamps.
• No costly lamp replacement with LED lamp life in excess of 50,000 hours.
• Battery pack for scenes of crime.
• Accessories include slot-
The crimelite 4 x 4 is a series of halogen lights in a ringlight construction. This moves away from the more traditional approach of using a light guide. Light guides can be awkward to position and generally one side of the image is brighter than the other. Also larger areas such as palms have to be ‘painted’ with light, otherwise only small sections are visible at any one time.
For more information please see the Foster and Freeman web site.
