BQ Cam is an optical counterpart of X-ray transient V0332+53. The system consists of a Be star and a neutron star. Recently, it has undergone rapid brightening after 9.3 years of quiescence, and has reached its brightness maximum V=15.19 on 2004 January 31. Our photometric CCD monitoring made with SAI 60-cm and SAO 100-cm reflectors shows that the continuous rise to maximum began in January, 2002 at V=15.66.
