CISCO/OHS camera filters
The following tables list the filters available in the camera
section of CISCO, together with their sensitivities. The transmission
curves of each filter are available as plots or ASCII lists if
indicated in the respective columns. All sensitivies are for 5 sigma
detections in 1 hour of background-limited on-source integration.
Point source sensitivities assume a 1'' aperture in 0.4'' seeing.
Numbers in italics are preliminary.
