Note: For point-like sources, the results will be given as a function of the photometric aperture.

Exposure Time Calculator
Fill in the boxes leaving empty the one you want to compute (except the number of exposures).
WARNING: Computations resulting in exposure times close to zero will hang up the procedure
Signal to noise ratio (*)
Magnitude (AB) (*)
TOTAL Exposure time [s]
Number of Exposures
(*) For point like sources, S/N within aperture and magnitude is total magnitude
     For extended objects, S/N within a pixel and magnitude refers to magnitudes/arcsec2
