The following is a summary of the thought process behind choosing a new digital camera system.

Ethan Parker has extensive experience using 35mm film equipment.  He started in 1982 with landscape, architectural, and macro photography.  Mr. Parker contused to shoot exclusively with film through most of 2005.  In 2005 the decision was made to switch to digital photography. 

This switch to digital allowed for faster turnaround in image processing, and embedment into reports.  As digital cameras have evolved to their current state they have allowed for greater resolution as compared to 35mm film.  This can be important when enlargement of detail in an image is required.

Mr. Parker's extensive use of flash to supplement the ambient light of a scene has also benefited from the digital revolution.  The new digital cameras allow him to control the output power of remote flashes from the camera streamlining the picture taking process.  This combination of experience, technical proficiency, and equipment allows Mr. Parker to produce a work product of greater value for the client.

In many cases involving forensic engineering it can be critical to adequately document the evidence photographically.  Mr. Parker has the knowledge, experience, and equipment to provide unsurpassed service in this critical area.
