Scientific paper

JHK photometry of bright reddened and unreddened early-type SMC members is presented, and the extinction law in those wavebands is studied. VRI photometry of several early-type SMC members is also presented and combined with existing observations to study the extinction at R and I also. It is found that, within the errors, the extinction law from V to K is the same for the SMC as for the Galaxy and the LMC, despite differences previously found in the ultraviolet.
