Results of BV R observations of meteors in the Perseid, Taurid, Orionid, Geminid, and Lyrid showers, as well as sporadic meteors, carried out with the Mini-MegaTORTORA system are presented. Two-color diagrams for the brightness maxima are constructed. It is shown that meteors in the Perseid, Taurid, and Geminid showers form clusters in the two-color diagrams. Variations in color with a temporal resolution of 0.1 s are considered for some meteors.
