<div class="">Hi Gary,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
We haven’t exhaustively tested yet, but we have been targeting around 15-20eps on the K3 and have been getting nice results. This general range was based on the 400 -> 1500 read rate increase.
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">At very high-magnifications 15eps is quite a high flux, so sometimes we will go below 10eps just so that we don’t have to push very high FPS (40+) with < 1 sec exposures. We have seen some mild pattern noise occasionally creep into images when
trying to save at high frame rates. Not sure yet if this is just our K3, or if it also seen by others. So far it doesn’t seem to be a problem in practice, but feedback from others if they have seen this would be appreciated.
<div class=""><br class="">
<div>Cheers,</div>
<div>-Craig</div>

it is advisable to work in nanoprobe. At parallel illumination and a 50 um C2 you should have around a 1.8um illuminated area.</span>

<span class="">Hello all,</span><br class="">
<span class=""></span><br class="">
<span class="">i’m looking for some info on the optimal dose rate for acquiring K3 movie stacks. i would appreciate it if any of you could send me your optimum acquisition parameters for imaging cry-samples for SPA…ie, dose rate, best frame rate/number of
frames, etc.</span><br class="">
<span class=""></span><br class="">
<span class="">i’m also trying to figure out how to setup my low dose so that we have parallel illumination for our record images (on an FEI Tecnai F20). the problem i see is that in microprobe the beam is spread much too wide to image/expose a single hole
at a time at our record mag. is it advisable to work in nano probe to get a smaller beam that is parallel? any advice on this would be appreciated.</span><br class="">
