Scientific paper

We present BVI CCD photometry for more than 10,000 stars in the innermost region (0.3' < r <~ 4') of the globular cluster M 3. When added to the previous photographic photometry by Buonanno et al. (1994) reaching as far as r ~ 7', this results in an homogeneous data-set including about 19,000 stars measured in this cluster, which can be now regarded as one of the main templates for stellar population studies. Our main results, from the new colour-magnitude diagrams (CMD), are: i) Completeness has been achieved for all objects at V<=18.6 and 0.3'
