Doesn't this just change the question to "what observation:parameter ratio is
needed for my structure to be over-determined?"?
As near as I'm aware, the answer to that one seems to be "as many observations
as you get".

Sure, it has very little to do with original question about what
constitutes "high" resolution. And that term is quite relative. 1.8A

to mention the issue of subjective choice of resolution cutoff). The

The electrons on the hydrogens won't be centered about the proton
nucleus, so if you want to resolve that as anything more than a bump,
you will need a lot better than 1 Å (or neutrons). But in fairness

what you can call
Of course. However, C=0 bond is ~1.2A, and bonds made by those pesky
hydrogens are ~1A. And I would think (it is semantics again) that to
reach atomic resolution you have to resolve all atoms, otherwise
"All atoms are equal, but some (non-hydrogens) are more equal than
others."

I don't think the term "high resolution" has any real definition or
meaning anymore. If you're proud of the resolution, put the number in
the title of the paper and let the reader decide. At one time 2 A was
high resolution, but I wouldn't consider that high resolution today

Actually, if you want to feel really good, I learned (in the context
of optics) that you can resolve two points separated by a distance x
with a diffraction limit of x/0.7, so this means you can start to see

I don't think that individual atoms can be RESOLVED at 2A resolution.
Even if we forget that hydrogen is also an atom, it is still true that
peaks in electron density corresponding to, say, covalently bonded atoms
are not separated. If atomic positions at 2A would be over-determined,
we won't need

You may want to have a look at the UV LEDs, which should be the cheapest
option if you only need a specific wavelenth.
