MASTER II robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru)
located in SAAO was pointed to the GRB151205B (Marshall et. al. GCN
18659) 28 sec after notice time and 63 sec after trigger time at 21:44:18
UT in two polarisations. On our first (10s exposure) set we haven`t found
optical transient within SWIFT error-box (ra=02 44 38 dec=-43 28 50
r=0.050000).
The 5-sigma upper limit has been about 17.0 mag.
We obtain a following early upper limits at a single an coadd images
