The star 16 Lac ≡ EN Lac has been observed photometrically from Spain and Mexico in order to obtain information concerning pulsational and binary characteristics. The analysis leads to results close to previous ones, i.e. a 10 M_sun; pulsating primary and a 1.3 M_sun; main sequence secondary star of spectral type F6-7. The stability of the three previously known frequencies is confirmed. A regular decrease of the amplitudes of both the 5.91 c/d and 5.86 c/d frequencies and the amplitude stability of the 5.50 c/d frequency which is now the strongest one are observed.
