Can't read sif file: list index out of range

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I tried reading my 1000frame sif files into an ipython notebook (running in 
ipython notebook through X11 on an ubuntu 10.4 server with anaconda installed) 
and am getting a list index out of a range error.  I just took the code from 
example.py and replaced it with the name of my sif file. Code and errors are 
below. 


from pysifreader import *
from pylab import *

# Read the SIF file
[data, back, ref] = sifread('25pM_29bpdsDNA_cy3cy5_1.sif')
pixels = data.imageData[:,:,0] - back.imageData[:,:,0]

# Print some information about the main (data) image
data.printInfo()

# Display the image
matshow(pixels)
show()
