VBLUW photometric observations of 115 Am, δ Del, and δ Sct stars are presented and discussed. The spread with respect to the main sequence in the two-colour diagrams is mainly attributed to gravity effects. Temperatures and gravities compare reasonably well with those of Davis Philip et al. (1976) based on uvbyß photometry. However, the temperatures derived by Babu and Shylaja (1981, 1982) and based on spectral energy distribution, reveal that the photometric temperatures (and thus also gravities) are underestimated. The relation between the temperature sensitive colour indices V-B (of the VBLUW system), b-y (ubvyß system) and B2-V1 (Geneva system) for A/F type stars is investigated. A PLC relation for the colour V-B is derived using Breger's (1979) relation for the colour b-y.
