Well 44 images from the 2006 May 22 Polydeuces ~64,000 km flyby have hit the JPL raw images site.

e.g. http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/multimedia/imag...eiImageID=76686

It very much looks like the stretching and conversion to JPEG for the images on this site have pretty much killed the original 12 bit images with Polydeuces now appearing to be overexposed. I'm pretty damn sure that the 12 bit VICAR images do NOT have an overexposed Polydeuces.

Agreed Gordan, the boresight was almost 100% spang-on. It just seems that the only time (except when pointed at UNK or SKY ) that the distance isn't posted is when the target is a moon either confirmed by, or discovered by the Cassini team - that is, Daphnis, Polydeuces, Methone and Pallene. All other targets have ranges down to the last kilometer.
