    44  Note that, alas, very few image formats allow for storage of important metadata about the image, so this information needs to be added manually. In this case set the '''wavelength to 0.10798'''. It is also helpful to change the display of the image so that it is easier to see the diffraction rings. Lowering the maximum intensity to 10,000 to 20,000 counts will help (note that this can be done by moving the slider, or by typing a value in the box and then clicking on another control). You may also wish to select another color scheme using the color bar selector.

    75  When this is done, it becomes clear that the points selected for the outermost ring are scattered between that and the next ring. This can be repaired by using the Image Operations/Clear Calibration menu item, lowering the area the program uses for searching for points by changing the "pixel search range" to 10 and then repeating the calibration steps (selecting points again on the first ring and then using the right mouse button)
