I agree, what great images!
QUOTE (AndyG @ Oct 26 2005, 03:35 AM) We also need camera angle to horizontal (not to rover) at least I think. Given that we have vertical trails centred in the view and that the horizon brightening looks square to the picture (=no camera tilt), the camera elevation will be a close approximation of the S latitude. Actually I look at the image again and the vertical trails are 1/3 down the frame, so camera elevation will underestimate latitude by a few degrees. Anyone know the angular FoV for this shot? |
