Armel covered it well.  Another thing that is worth mentioning is that
without collimation of the diffracted beam, it is impossible to study
anything that is on a single-crystal substrate, because of the many
secondary diffraction effects from the substrate at non-Bragg conditions.
If you are not doing any thin films, this will not be a problem.
