Quality of the fundamental plane as a distance indicator using our selected sample of 94 922 elliptical galaxies, but with the direct-fit coefficients of Bernardi et al. (2003c) or Hyde & Bernardi (2009), respectively (the coefficients are listed in Table 1 of this paper).

Notes. We found that our best-fit coefficients (see Table 5) are better by a few percent than those of our esteemed colleagues.
