We report the result of a prototype photometric search for transiting extrasolar planet using the 105cm Kiso Schmidt Telescope. Out of about 9000 stars monitored around l=40 degree, b=16 degree, we find that more than 400 show photometric precisicon better than 1%. Thus, the Kiso Schmidt Telescope has the photometric stability and accuracy necessary for a transiting extrasolar planet survey. Moreover, a new schmidt camera is scheduled to be operated in the Kiso Observatory in 2008. Since the field of view of the new schmidt camara is approximately 2 degree * 1.5 degree, we would be able to monitori more stars. We discuss the detection pro bability of transiting extrasolar planets on the case of using the new schmidt camera.
