The results of detailed 
imaging of six nearby irregular
galaxies with radial velocities 
km/s are presented. Except for one
all the galaxies have been resolved into stars for the first time. Based
on photometry of the brightest blue stars we derived the following
distances to the galaxies: 3.6 Mpc for NGC 4163, 3.5 Mpc for NGC 4190,
8.6 Mpc for UGC 7298, 4.8 Mpc for UGC 7577, 3.7 Mpc for UGC 8308, and
4.0 Mpc for UGC 8320.
Key words: galaxies: irregular / galaxies: distances / galaxies: stellar content
