3.2.2.3 Image capture

Open a video window, `Tasks` / `Capture` / `Capture Video Frame`, and when it shows the desired area, save the file. The choice of file name is a question of personal preference. We find it helpful to use a format that indicates where in the mosaic the data comes from -- for example, `dat3.5.v` for the fifth image in row three.

It is helpful to be able to see the previous image to ensure that there is sufficient overlap. To achieve this, a second video window can be opened and placed alongside and the images grabbed into alternate windows.
