The paper presents CCD surface photometry in Johnson B and Gunn r for 33 galaxies in the Coma cluster and for 13 galaxies in the field or in other clusters, obtained with the Danish 1.54-m telescope at the ESO, La Silla, Chile in the period April 3-10, 1989. The data were calibrated with standard stars. Data for all galaxies include derivations of effective radius, mean surface brightness, and total magnitude. Good agreement was found between the photometry and the global parameters presented with data of Dressler, Faber, Burstein and their collaborators, indicating that the quality of the CCD data is fully adequate for studies of the large-scale motions in the universe.
