Images (more than 200 of exposure time 45 sec each) of the field of the INTEGRAL transient IGR J17464-3213 were taken on 03/04/01 at the Bronberg Observatory (0.3m telescope +CCD camera) over the period UT 00 00 to 03 35. Several brightened objects and at least one new bright object (within the given error circle)were visually detected on a stacked image by a quick comparison to DSS images of generation 1/visible and 2/red up to a magnitude of 17CR. No inspection vs IR images was possible yet. More detailed inspection and eventual astrometry will follow when time will have been available to do so. A stacked image could be composed to reach beyound 20CR if needed and differential photometry of reasonable precision will be possible on any counterpart brighter than magn 16CR. This may be cited as a preliminary report.
