Museum Quality Images Every Time, "It’s So Easy an Archaeologist Can Do It"

Summary

With a background in forensics, David Knoerlein, vice president of Forensic Digital Imaging, is a certified evidence photographer who has developed a new and innovative process for the digital documentation of artifacts. Mr. Knoerlein will demonstrate how to capture museum quality images right out of the camera. Utilizing a customized tabletop camera station, he will demonstrate how to capture detailed diagnostic images of artifacts with pure white (shadowless) backgrounds. This combination of equipment and procedures will eliminate the need for post-processing (i.e. Photoshop), resulting in time savings while achieving the highest quality image. Mr. Knoerlein will also discuss quality control tracking methods and the use of procedural guides to ensure professional results.
