T. Minezaki (IoA, Tokyo), P.A. Price (IfA, Hawaii), Y. Yoshii (IoA,
Tokyo), L. Cowie (IfA, Hawaii) and Y. Kakazu (IfA, Hawaii) report:

We observed the localisation of GRB 080307 with the MAGNUM telescope +
MIP dual-beam imager. We do not find any afterglow in the RIYJHK images
within the XRT error circle (GCN #7366), and at the Gemini-N i-band
candidate position (GCN #7369). We estimated the upper limits in JHK
based on flux calibration with a nearby 2MASS star as follows:

  Filter   t - t_GRB (hour)    Limit (mag)
  J        +18.9               20.8
  H        +19.8               20.1
  K        +19.5               19.2
