High speed photometry during the lunar occultation of a stellar system provides an effective means of achieving high angular resolution in one dimension at thearc second level which is well suited for resolving close binary projected separations in the range of 10-100 milliarc seconds. An optical fast photometer designed for such a purpose is described and some results from the initial observations taken with the system including the resolution of a projected separation of 55 milli arcsecond in one binary system are detailed.
