Solution ???

11. One possible solution: usage of previous UBVRI standards and try to transform For Kepler-field blazars we selected NGC7790 open cluster’s standards. At the SDSS web site: http://www.sdss.org/dr7/algorithms/sdssUBVRITransform.html#Jordi2006 One can find the possible linear formulae (Jordi et al., 2006) UBVRcIc -> ugriz ================ Transformation u-g = (0.750 ± 0.050)*(U-B) + (0.770 ± 0.070)*(B-V) + (0.720 ± 0.040) * g-V = (0.630 ± 0.002)*(B-V) - (0.124 ± 0.002) g-B = (-0.370 ± 0.002)*(B-V) - (0.124 ± 0.002) * g-r = (1.646 ± 0.008)*(V-R) - (0.139 ± 0.004) g-i = (1.481 ± 0.004)*(V-I) - (0.536 ± 0.004) if V-I <= 1.8 g-i = (0.83 ± 0.01)*(V-I) + (0.60 ± 0.03) if V-I > 1.8 * r-i = (1.007 ± 0.005)*(R-I) - (0.236 ± 0.003) * r-z = (1.584 ± 0.008)*(R-I) - (0.386 ± 0.005) r-R = (0.267 ± 0.005)*(V-R) + (0.088 ± 0.003) if V-R <= 0.93 r-R = (0.77 ± 0.04)*(V-R) - (0.37 ± 0.04) if V-R > 0.93 i-I = (0.247 ± 0.003)*(R-I) + (0.329 ± 0.002) (Jordi et al.
