Latent Print Photography Simplified

with the "StapleTube"

StapleTube

Introducing the “StapleTube”™

The StapleTube Close Focusing Aid (Patent Pending) is intended to be used by CSI personnel to simplify and expedite the photography of latent fingerprints with 35mm or professional digital cameras. It aids latent print photography in the following ways…

  • It eliminates the need for a tripod.
  • Latent prints are rapidly and easily photographed.
  • The camera lens only needs to be focused once.
  • It allows enough field-of-view to photograph multiple prints with a scale/identifier in the same frame.
  • It allows for the use of lens filters with forensic light sources.

The StapleTube simply screws onto the filter threads at the front of the camera lens. Latent fingerprints may be illuminated through the clear “StapleTube” by either available light or holding a light source to the side at a 45 degree angle to the surface of interest.

Federal and local law enforcement professionals are amazed of the photographic results and its simplicity of use. For more information or to order the “StapleTube” e-mail Mike Stapleton or call (916) 939-2211.
