Zeropoints were determined by Kate Whitaker, using all standard stars taken on photometric nights during run #1. The zeropoints were remarkably stable; no effort has been made to correct for airmass or other effects. The error in the zeropoints is probably about 0.02.

Values in brackets are the ones that PvD derived 'by hand' after the first night of the run. The zeropoints are in Vega - see Instrument: Filter info for AB zeropoints. Vega magnitudes can be calculated by
mag = ZP - 2.5*log(ADU) + 2.5*log(exptime)
