Hi Dirk

Converting to a form that Mosflm can read is not too much of a problem - the 
problem arises because Kappa CCD images are not corrected for spatial 
distortions, which can be significant. 

I think you would need a correction table (or similar - maybe “brass plate” 
images if you have them); it’s possible that d*Trek (Jim Pflugrath) might be 
able to convert for you (or even process the images, since it was quite popular 
in the days when Kappa CCDs were around), or Fit2D (Andy Hammersley) might work 
- but I don’t think either program is maintained (the Fit2D website says it was 
last updated in 1997…).
