How to acquire buffered frames from a gigecam object?

I am using an external trigger for framestart of a gige vision camera and I can see that its working because preview(obj) updates the figure when triggered. However, I can't seem to store these frames in the workspace as snapshot(obj) appears to take a new picture every time. Is it possible to access the captured images?

For hardware triggering, videoinput gige interface is a better option than gigecam. Refer to the following example: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/289155-how-to-configure-a-hardware-triggered-acquisition-from-a-gige-vision-camera
