We present new (V,V-I)-photometry of the metal-rich globular clusters NGC
5927, 6316, 6342, 6441 and 6760. The clusters show differential reddening up to
dE(V-I)=0.32 mag, for which the CMDs are corrected via extinction maps. There
are hints of a variation in the extinction law. Two different ways to determine
the parameters metallicity, reddening and distance lead to consistent results.
The metallicities of the clusters range between -0.7 <= [M/H] <= 0.0 dex and
the absolute reddening between 0.43 <= E(V-I) <= 0.76 mag. Taking the
differential reddening into account leads to slightly increased distances. From
the resulting parameters we conclude that the usual halo-disk-distinction in
the system of globular clusters seems questionable.Comment: 21 pages, 34 ps-figures; Astronomy and Astrophysics accepte
