N.P.M. Kuin (MSSL/UCL) and D. Grupe (PSU)
report on behalf of the Swift/UVOT team:

The Swift/UVOT began settled observations of the field of GRB 110411A
135 s after the BAT trigger (Grupe et al., GCN Circ. 11918).
No optical afterglow consistent with the XRT (Goad et al., GCN Circ.
11920) or the Xinglong (Xin et al., GCN Circ. 11923) positions
is detected in the initial UVOT exposures.

Preliminary 3-sigma upper limits using the UVOT photometric system
(Poole et al. 2008, MNRAS, 383, 627) for the first finding chart (FC)
exposure and subsequent exposures are:

The values quoted above are not corrected for the Galactic extinction
due to the reddening of E(B-V) = 0.10 in the direction of the burst
(Schlegel et al. 1998).
