After figuring out the best field and camera parameters for your live view, taking and annotating
pictures is the next step for making your work more discernible to others. The Leica Application
Suite has basic tools that can be useful for the analysis of the microstructures within your
sample. With methods such as X-Y-Z stitching available, intricate and complex photos can be
made. If need be, post-processing image correction along with any annotations can be applied to
your image for any second thoughts on the way that the image’s camera controls were captured.
