Hi Filip,

Another way to do it, if you are somewhat comfortable with python, is to 
use sparx, as described on this page:
http://sparx-em.org/sparxwiki/align_chimera

This will give you the Euler angles which describe the rotations, and 
can be converted to most of the common angle conventions (spider, EMAN, 
imagic, ...).
