Scientific paper

The optical warps of NGC 5907 is studied by means of CCD photometry, for the U and I filters, as well as for a narrow band filter centered at H-alpha. The present observations were extended out to about 380 arcsec in the NW side and out to about 348 arcsec in the SE side. The H I warps begin at these galactocentric radii, so that the optical ones are not clearly distinguished. The U warp is larger than the I one in the NW, but this difference is not appreciated in the SE. The disk shows slight corrugations.
