LROC news and images Options

I know it may be too early for such a thread, but an announcement has to be made.

The official website of the LROC camera is:

A brief description plus status is available here:

Is it just me, or - when loading the TIF's at full res, there appears to be some sort of interlacing (vertically). i.e. one column of pixels is bright, the next dark..bright, dark etc etc.

I guess some sort of adaptive amplification to create a pseudo enhanced dynamic range might be involved....or it might be a processing error, or it might be just something to do with the TIF's.

You can sort of back it out with some VERY rudimentary Photoshopping (doesn't quite get the shadows...someone cleverer than I could do it). I'd expect proper calibration (which is, after all, the point of these early images) would eliminate it. I found a different chunt and had a go at it

I noticed that on a couple of the images but not all. More interesting is that the Zoomify image on the LROC website doesn't show that artifact.
