Notes. Same as Table 2, but for ‘bright’ objects at mr < 19.8, the spectroscopic limit of the GAMA survey. This gives a handle on how successfully we would be able to decompose galaxies observed by GAMA. As can be seen, single-band fitting is more successful at returning fit values for brighter objects, as expected, but is still on a much lower level than multi-band fitting, which is basically unchanged between the samples. Color code: cf. Notes of Table 2.
