Recent developments in pixelated detectors, when combined with aberration correction of probe forming optics have greatly enhanced the field of scanning electron diffraction. Differential phase contrast is now routine and deep learning has been proposed as a method to extract maximum information from diffraction patterns. This work examines the effects of temporal and spatial incoherence on convergent beam electron diffraction patterns and demonstrates that simple center of mass measurements cannot be naively interpreted. The inclusion of incoherence in deep learning data sets is also discussed.
