Hi all,
Over the last couple of weeks I've had several people come up to me and ask what standardisation of image production and depth of field means. Prior to writing my critique I spent an afternoon researching and reading several papers about how to critique dental photographs. Many of the useful references are available in the dental imaging booklet. By doing this a gained a better understanding about these different aspects (standardisation of image production and depth of field) which ultimately allowed me to critique my photographs more precisely. I think by initially learning about how to critique before jumping into trying to critique the photos is a valuble exercise and will make your critique writing much easier.
Hope this helps, Rach.

Hi Rachel,
Indeed, the reference materials provided by Sophie are there to help us with our self assessments, and it is a good idea to read them through.
As well as the references in the 'Dental Imaging' booklet, there are also some references on MyUni.
I found it particularly useful to read through the following two references prior to taking the photos, because they give detailed information on how they should be taken:
'Standardisation in dental photography'
'Perioral and intraoral photography'
If anyone needs clarification on these subjects:
To my understanding, 'standardisation of image production' are the steps taken to produce each photo to a set criteria, in order to better compare features between photos.
For further information on depth of field, please see previous posts in this blog.
Thanks
Nick
