SUBJECT: GRB 080319B: Optical observation (Brno, CZ)

We observed GRB 080319B using 40cm Newtonian telescope, SBIG ST-7XMEi CCD camera and R-band Kron-Cousins filter. We found afterglow to be R=20.0+-0.3 mag at 2008.03.20 0.125 UT. Given time is mid-exposure (total exposure: 6.7h). Weather conditions were poor because of clouds and Moon. We used 13 nearby USNO-B1.0 stars to get R magnitude.
