Dear Carsten, dear Tarun are you sure HKL can process the unwarped images? As far as I understand, the distortion is detector specific, i.e. each detector has its own undistortion description. As Kay pointed out, reading sfrm is not a problem, it is very well documented (and a neat format). Once

Thank you Jacob and Ethan! I haven't put water molecules into the density blob, which aren't many out there, but I fitted the ligands in already. Molbrobity statistics are not yet great, since there are 13.5% rotamer outliers. Will adjust the models manually, and try refmac and TLS refinement. T

of course, Kay is right; I just assumed that the frames were "warped", or not corrected for spatial distortion. Mosflm does require "unwarped" data from the Bruker CCD detectors. I haven't seen images from their CMOS detectors which may not require unwarping (but probably will...). Harry -- Dr

Tarun, in my group we used to have a Proteum6000 CCD from Bruker. With the right detector descriptions from the HKL folks we able to use HKL2000, talk to the hkl folks, you may also need another license covering that detector though. Alternatively Bruker provides the Proteum suite (I think that

I don't think the .sfrm ending means that the data can or can not be read by non-Bruker software. The crucial difference is between "warped" and "unwarped" data, if I understand correctly. XDS (and I think MOSFLM) can only process "unwarped" data. As Harry says, there is an "unwarping" utility
