Autonomy is satisfied with equipment situation. Therefore, purchases are for research/experimentation.

Decision:

  1. Option B

  2. Lenses of various FOV without filter (or filter removed upon arrival) for experimentation

  3. Option E only if any remaining funds (low priority, only for MEF F24do not use other funding for this)
