The author presents high-resolution observations (FWHM ≡ 0arcsec.5 - 1arcsec.0) of the luminosity standard NGC 3379 obtained with the CFH telescope, to which he adds new regular-resolution data. He discusses the problems related to photography at high resolution. The consistency and accuracy of the new material is checked against previous data analysed in paper I (Nieto, 1983). Following the method of de Vaucouleurs and Capaccioli (1979), the author derives the composite high-resolution east-west profile of NGC 3379.
