    5454== Comparison with SDSS - (Nigel Metcalfe) ==

    56 Here is a comparison of the PSFmags from the cmf files of four adjacent (arbitrarily chosen) MD07 stacks with SDSS model mags. r-band on the left, g-band on the right. Blue indicates an object flagged as a star by SDSS. I haven't rejected any images flagged as defective in any way, so this probably explains the blue points offset by 2 mags. Clearly the zero-point varies from cell to cell (do we expected this? after all, no calibration has been done as far as I can tell). The r-band stellar locus also appears tighter in cell 41 than in the other r-band cells. As the are no extended source magnitudes in the cmf files, all the galaxies (black open circles) are offset.

UPDATE: looks like these offset points are stars with masked centres - note that there are brighter stars which are not masked. Is this the 'removing intermediate brightness stars as cosmic rays' problem again?
