... An overall criterion for standard-star selection is the accuracy needed in the final results: if you need more accuracy, you will need more standard stars. ... While it is possible to get a rough estimate of the extinction by observing different standard stars at high and low airmasses, the relatively large conformity errors in most photometric systems, together with the low accuracy of some standards, make this method very inefficient (see Young [ 10 ], p.178). ...
