The dominant trend within stellar photometry in recent years has been an increase in the number of intermediate and narrow-band photometric observations, particularly with small telescopes. Recent examples illustrating the scope and emphasis of such programs are reviewed. It is concluded that with continuing improvement in detector technology and telescope automation, small telescope photometry will grow in importance.
