Hi Theresa,
one issue I noticed during -admittedly few- collections on PILATUS detectors, 
are low symmetry space groups and perfectly centered detectors. The many seams 
of the detector left us with <90% complete triclinic data sets. A slightly 
imperfect centering of the detector or collections at different distances 
should remedy that.

Cheers,
Jan
