Hi Murpholino, in my opinion (*), the question is neither number of frames nor degrees. The only thing that matters to your crystal is dose. How many photons does your crystal take before it dies? Consequently, the question to ask is How best to use photons. Some people have done exactly that. https://doi.org/10.1107/S2059798319003528
All best. Andreas (*) Disclaimer: I benefit when you use PILATUS or EIGER - but I want you to use them to your advantage.
