Yep, you're correct about squaring the telescope efficiency, should be EF(A^2).

I usually put the "206.265" in there mostly because I am curious about sample size, interested in doing photometric studies. As you say, it isn't needed outside of that.

No source, came up with it on the drive home from work a month or two ago when I was trying to decide on a camera :-)
