(IKI) report on behalf of larger GRB follow-up collaboration:

We observed GRB 200716C (Fermi GBM team, GCN 28123; Ukwatta et al GCN 
28124;  Torii et al., GCN 28139;  Xue et al., GCN 28145; Frederiks et 
al., GCN 28147)  with ZTSH 2.6m telescope of CrAO observatory, 
Zeiss-2000 of Terskol observatory, and AZT-20 telescope of Assy-Turgen 
observatory.   The optical afterglow (Ukwatta et al., GCN 28124; Lipunov 
et al., GCN 28125; Hu et al., GCN 28126; Kumar et al., GCN 28138; 
Gokuldass et al., GCN 28146; Jelinek et al., GCN 28149) and possible 
host galaxy (D’Avanzo et al., GCN 28132)  is detected in a stacked 
image. Preliminary photometry of the (afterglow + possible host galaxy) 
is following

2020-07-18 18:33:32  1.83323 R      24*120 19.21 0.06 22.1 Zeiss-2000
2020-07-18 19:25:19  1.85253 R      17*60  19.21 0.06 22.1 ZTSh
2020-07-19 17:15:50  2.78066 r'     52*60  19.31 0.03 22.4 AZT-20

The photometry is based for R-calibration on the star
USNO-B1.0_id R
1196-0207871 16.18

and nearby SDSS stars for r' calibration
SDSS-DR12_id        r
J130423.13+294053.3 15.970
J130352.15+293733.9 16.592
J130416.16+293906.8 16.914

The above photometry besides of the first observation   is consistent 
with a brightness of possible host in USNO-B1.0 (R2=19.23) and in SDSS 
DR12 (r'= 19.301 +/- 0.026). We may conclude that we detected afterglow 
only in the first observation on  0.84735 days after trigger at R=19.04 
+/- 0.03.
