Field of View
'Alopeke and Zorro have two sets of optics which allow selecting between "Speckle" mode and "Wide-Field" mode. Both modes slightly underfill the detector resulting in circular fields-of-view.
The diameter of the unvignetted wide-field is ~35" (~60" diameter with vignetting). See the vignetting maps in the following table where contours have been overplotted at 10% vignetting intervals, and the green box indicates the size of the 512x512 ROI.
