    (Bologna Observatory) report:

    During the night between 08/04/30 and 080501 we observed the OT of
    GRB080430 (Guidorzi et al., GCN 7647, Klotz, Boer & Atteia, GCN 7646)
    in Rc, V, B AND I  with the 1.52  cm telescope of the Bologna Observatory
    in Loiano in good weather conditons, airmass  between 1 and 1.6,
    seeing less than 4".
    Calibration was obtained from the NOMAD catalog in the Rc filter and from
    the SDSS observations by Cool et al. in GCN 7649 for the other filters.
    We obtain the following magnitudes
