check Will's Video: Mars Curiosity Rover Sol 2454 Manipulation?

I think the reason for most of the noise in these images (besides the fact it is a raw jpg) is that the left Mastcam has limitations when it comes to depth of field and is considered standard definition, whereas the right Mastcam is considered high definition. The left cam has a fixed 34mm focal length, the right cam has a zoom focal length of 100mm and it makes a visual difference.

It looks as if some of the stuff might have been imaged with the right cam on Sol 2453, 2455 & 2457 but the color has not come down yet and might not until the PDS versions are released in a few months.

Thank you to everyone who has stuck by the YouTube channel and to all of our admins and forum users here on the channel.   They really have kept the website current while I have been busy taking care of things in my personal life.   I promised that the next video would be a long one and have a LOT to look at.  You can get lost in these Gigapans and I really hope that you do!  I spent a lot of time stitching these together and making sure that they were the best quality that I could get them.  SOL 1448 really has been a goldmine for anomaly hunters and those people who are just hobbiest.  I really hope you enjoy this one and expect much more to come from the latest batches of images!
