We present a set of UBVRIzJHK_sphotometry for 745 J+H-band-selected objects in a 22.5'x29.2' region centered on the core of the Coma Cluster. This includes 516 galaxies and is at least 80% complete to H=16, with a spectroscopically complete sample of 111 cluster members (nearly all with morphological classification) for H<14.5. For each object we present total Kron ((ref???)1980) magnitudes and aperture photometry. As an example, we use these data to derive color-magnitude relations for Coma early-type galaxies, measure the intrinsic scatter of these relations and its dependence on galaxy mass, and address the issue of color gradients. We find that the color gradients are mild and that the intrinsic scatter about the color-magnitude relation is small (∼0.05 mag in U-V and less than ∼0.03 in B-R, V-I, or J-K). There is no evidence that the intrinsic scatter varies with galaxy luminosity, suggesting that the cluster red sequence is established at early epochs over a range of ∼100 in stellar mass.
