Saturation Magnitudes
The below tables provide an estimate of when magnitude of saturation in a 1 second exposure for each filter. The estimates were made assuming an observation taking place at 1.0 airmass and 1.3 airmass with 3 different estimated site seeing conditions. These can be useful references when trying to select appropriate standard magnitudes for a given filter and condition.
