Spanish term

fotografía de conjunto, semiconjunto, y detalle

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering
These are descriptions of a set of photographs used as evidence in a trial. I assume that "fotografía de detalle" means a close-up photograph. I don't know how to translate de conjunto y semiconjunto.

an overview, a mid range and a close-up shot.

Rule 2 - Get a Complete Series of Pictures

You must move around the scene to see everything. So must the camera. Generally speaking, each important object in the scene should appear in at least three pictures: an overview; a mid range shot; a close-up.

The overview should cover the entire scene to bring out the relationships between the objects. The mid range shot shows and important object and its immediate surroundings. Finally, each close-up shows a key detail clearly.
