OK - so the majority of images wont be the full width or the full resolution ( many may well be the full 20k wide - downsamples 2 x 2 - with the central 4k at native res. )

I'd have thought that both MER sites would be at the very top of the list ( the first possible chance to take those images, I'm sure they will ) - if for no other reason that to do what they've done with MOC, HRSC, Themis etc - use albedo observations from MER as a ground reference for orbital instruments.

Pathfinder, V1 and V2 will be on the shopping list, but not at the top of it.
