Publication on digital photography and conservation documentation

AIC has published the long-awaited second edition of the AIC Guide
to Digital Photography and Conservation Documentation. This book is
a comprehensive guide to digital photographic equipment, software,
and processing tailored to the needs of conservation professionals.
Authors Franziska Frey, Dawn Heller, Dan Kushel, Timothy Vitale,
Jeffrey Warda (editor), and Gawain Weaver have more than doubled the
size of the first edition, which includes major extensions and
updates to the text and is fully illustrated with over 120 color
figures.  This second edition also has a wraparound internal spiral
binding, allowing the book to lay flat-a request made by many
readers of the first edition.

AIC is also pleased to announce the sale of AIC PhotoDocumentation
Targets (AIC PhD Targets), designed by Dan Kushel, Jiuan-Jiuan Chen,
and Luisa Casella, and produced by Robin Myers Imaging. The AIC PhD
Targets provide an easy and efficient way to include photographic
reference standards as well as image and artifact identification
information. Lightweight and of robust construction, each target is
fully assembled and ready for use. Targets are provided with
instructional information and with online resources, which include a
printing template for slip-in labels for the medium and small
targets. To order, please visit the AIC website
