the difference in alignment between the the Sripada and the Sun, I define alignment as
Alignment = (Azimuth to Sripada) - (Azimuth of Sun at 1.8 Degrees altitude)
which makes Alignment negative when peak is to left or north (see 2010,2018)
and positive when the peak is to the right or south (see 2007,2023).
When alignment is between +/-0.06 the peak is almost centered (see 2013,2021)
| North Side | Center | South Side |
 2010 Alignment=-0.15 Olympus FE5010,X915 |  2013 Alignment=-0.05 Panasonic DMC LZ20 |  2007 Alignment=+0.13 Sony FDMAVICA |
 2018 Alignment=-0.13 Canon PowerShot SX620 HS |  2021 Alignment=-0.03 Canon PowerShot SX620 HS |  2023 Alignment=+0.18 Canon PowerShot SX620 HS |
