Hi Srinivasan, I always use edstats from the command line: 'edstats.pl HKLIN 101m_0cyc.mtz XYZIN 101m_0cyc.pdb'. I hadn't noticed it was well-hidden (or the limit case: not present) in CCP4i. I guess a feature request is in order. Cheers, Robbie Date: Wed, 13 Mar 2013 03:42:45 +0800

Ed, no the fact that you don't, can't or won't estimate the precision doesn't change anything (only as you say it becomes a poorly designed experiment). A measurement has a standard deviation regardless of whether you possess an estimate of its value or not. The exact true value of the standard

I would keep the hexagonal lattice, assuming your integration was OK - no missed spots and then index the data as P1. If the anom Pattersons should then show the correct symmetry - if the Patterson shows P6/mmm symmetry you should be safe in either assigning P6122 or P6522 to the structure SG.

5 degrees per image may be problematic for some algorithms since the diffraction spots have uncertain positions in three dimensions. Two dimensions will come from the position of the spot on the detector and the position of the detector. The third dimension will come from the rotation angle
