Abfo No. 2 Photomacrographic Scale

The Abfo No. 2 Photomacrographic Scale is a forensic documentation tool designed for law enforcement, crime scene investigators, and forensic professionals who require precise photographic measurement during evidence collection and analysis. This scale enables examiners to establish accurate size reference in close-up and macro photography, ensuring that evidence documentation meets rigorous standards for courtroom admissibility and investigative integrity. Whether working in crime labs, field investigations, or specialized forensic units, this scale eliminates guesswork and provides the dimensional accountability that chains of custody demand.

Manufactured to ABFO (American Board of Forensic Odontology) standards, the Abfo No. 2 Photomacrographic Scale features a compact, lightweight design that integrates seamlessly into evidence photography protocols without contaminating or damaging specimens. The scale's high-contrast markings and precise graduations allow photographers to capture calibrated reference measurements at macro distances, critical for fiber analysis, tool mark examination, and dental/bite mark documentation. Its minimal weight and thin profile ensure consistent placement within the frame without obstructing evidence or introducing shadows that compromise image quality and subsequent expert analysis.

This scale serves crime scene technicians, forensic photographers, dental forensics specialists, and evidence custodians across federal, state, and local agencies. It is essential for cases requiring detailed photographic comparison, including firearm examination, latent print analysis, and biological evidence documentation. The compact dimensions (4.15 x 0.1 x 4.1 inches) and minimal weight ensure portability across field kits and laboratory setups, making it an indispensable addition to any forensic photography protocol where scientific accuracy and evidentiary credibility are non-negotiable.
