Transformation coefficients for BSM_Berry2 were generated on 201120. The coeffs are shown below. They have been added to the BSM_Berry2 telescope settings in VPhot and are used in VPhot color photometry.

Note that Berry2 uses a Sloan R filter rather than a Cousins R filter. These coeffs transform SR magnitudes to Cousins R magnitudes and they should be reported as such.
