[AstroPy] Photometric magnitude to flux conversion code?

[Erik Tollerud]

You might also take a look at the tools in astropysics.phot (
http://pythonhosted.org/Astropysics/coremods/phot.html).  I wrote those for
relatively simple tasks just like this. Hopefully that will also end up in
astropy in the future (or perhaps just an interface like this that is
backed by something full-featured like pysynphot), but this should work for
now.
