Next: Reduction procedure Up: Extinction and transformation Previous: Strategy . Standard stars can be included in the extinction solution, if one is careful. The problem is that there are usually appreciable ``conformity errors'' due to mismatch between the instrumental and the standard passbands [ 16 ]. ... Thus, it is wrong to assume that the transformation between the instrumental system and the standard system is exact, even if there were no measurement error in either system [ 1 ]. ...

... Standard magnitudes can only be computed for the U, B and V filters and hence the only standard colours that can be calculated are U-B, B-V and U-V. An important point to note, is that these standard colours can be computed using the following instrumental colours - U-B, B-V, U-V, (UVW1-U), (UVW1-B), (UVW1-V), (UVW2-B) and (UVW2-V). ... The program loops through these colours and if the relevant instrumental magnitudes are present computes the standard magnitudes and standard colour. ...
