Taking Photos via USB camera for documentation

IT World be nice to have the ability to take a photo from an USB Kamera for scenic or Chanel Dokumentation on the Desktop. Perhaps with Integrated Chanel or cue Number. 

Or a MS Button to take photos of an USB Kamera.

    ETC partners with Movinglight Assistant to do Photo Documentation of Fixture Focus and Movinglight Presets.

    I have learned the hard way that storing many images directly into your showfile via a magic sheet quickly balloons your showfile size. Storing 30x 1080p pictures can bump your showfile size over 100MB, which has negative effects on data transfer speeds, especially in scenarios where your backup has to take control fast, or you want to take back control on the Primary. Taking back control of a 100MB showfile in our network takes around 25s where it pauses all DMX output. 

    I do like the general idea of being able to document your presets/looks inside the desk. But I personally think this has to be via some kind of new Explorer Tab, which gives you access to a basic file structure of the desk's main Drive, since storing the photos inside magic sheets isn't optimal for showfile size. 

    For Core focus, I would likely need 30+ images per show. If I wanted to document Presets, this could easily reach 150+ photos.
