Swift observed SAX J1808.4-3658 during its outburst phase. The observation started on June 16 2005 UT00:42:51. A first report was presented by Kong (ATEL 527). Here we report on Photon Counting (PC) data and Window Timing (WT) data together. The source was observed for 784 s in PC and 119 s in WT. The source is bright and appears well off-axis on the PC image (and at the border of the WT strip). The count rate in WT is 12.26+/-0.32 c/s (0.5-10 keV).
