Abstract:This is the second of a series of papers on low X-ray luminosity galaxy clusters, in which we present the r', g' and i' photometry obtained with Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph IMAGE at Gemini North and South telescopes for seven systems in the redshift range of 0.18 to 0.70. Optical magnitudes, colours and morphological parameters, namely, concentration index, ellipticity and visual morphological classification, are also given. At lower redshifts, the presence of a well-defined red cluster sequence extending by more than 4mag showed that these intermediate-mass clusters had reached a relaxed stage. This was confirmed by the small fraction of blue galaxy members observed in the central regions of ~0.75Mpc. In contrast, galaxy
