Comparison of 2MASS and VICS82 J and ﹩{K}_{{\rm{s}}}﹩ magnitudes for sources with total magnitudes in the range Ks = 15–15.25 mag. Each histogram contains a total of 104 randomly selected sources across the survey. The width (σ) of each distribution is 0.044 and 0.046 mag, where we have fit a Gaussian to the central distributions after clipping. Note that these numbers are averaged over both CFHT and VISTA photometry across the full VICS82 survey area.
