We present the results of CCD photometry in the seven-color Vilnius system for 922 stars down to V ~ 17 mag in a 1.5 square degree field at the northern edge of the HII region Sh2-205, at the Perseus and Camelopardalis border. Using the intrinsic color indices and photometric reddening-free Q-parameters, two-dimensional spectral types for most stars are determined.
