Acquire and save your first dataset

Draft outline

Scaffold. Replace the bullet prompts with your own text and delete this banner when done.

Learning-oriented, for users. By the end of this tutorial you will have captured a single image, saved it, and found the file again — the foundation for every larger workflow.

Snap a single image​

  • What to cover: from Live View, how to capture the current frame (button, shortcut).
  • What file format / naming you get by default.

Where the file is saved​

  • Explain the default save location and the File Manager app.
  • How to change the destination folder.

  • Insert a USB drive; where it appears.
  • Copy/move a dataset from the File Manager to the USB device.
  • Safely eject.
