We describe the use of conventional Weissenberg equipment to record in a routine manner the diffuse scattering from disordered molecular crystals. The diffuse image is digitized using an Optronics P1700 scanner and is corrected for background and other errors before subsequent rewriting as an undistorted reciprocal‐lattice section in a form suitable for easy interpretation. The resolution of the method is discussed.
