10 pages, to appear in the PASP proceedings of "Transiting Extrasolar Planets Workshop" MPIA Heidelberg Germany, 25th-28th Sep

Scientific paper

We review the state of the art in follow-up photometry for planetary transit searches. Three topics are discussed: (1) Photometric monitoring of planets discovered by radial velocity to detect possible transits (2) Follow-up photometry of candidates from photometric transit searches to weed out eclipsing binaries and false positives (3) High-precision lightcurves of known transiting planets to increase the accuracy on the planet parameters.
