Scientific paper

We re-discuss in detail the use of linear fit to the (B-V),(B-I) ZAMS of open clusters proposed by Natali et al. (1994) to measure the reddening. A proper link to the Cousins photometric system and evaluation of the adopted extinction law shows that the application of the proposed method must be carefully handled over observational data to avoid large errors. Other combinations of colors are explored in search for a higher sensitivity to reddening, which in any case remains quite poor.
