NIKON AND FASHION DESIGNER ALICE TEMPERLEY PARTNER TO CREATE AN EXCLUSIVE ACCESSORY FOR COOLPIX S9

For a limited-time offer this holiday season, Nikon has partnered with Alice Temperley to create a stunning new accessory for the tech-savvy and style-conscious consumer. From November 26, 2006, consumers purchasing the COOLPIX S9 digital camera will receive an exclusive, Temperley for Nikon camera case while supplies last. A national retailer will have extremely limited quantities of this special accessory incorporating one of Temperley's signature prints and promise to go quickly. Consumers are encouraged to scan their holiday circulars to determine which local retail chain will be carrying this item.

"Partnering with a world-renowned designer like Alice Temperley is a very exciting venture for Nikon as we are constantly looking for new ways to integrate style and fashion into our brand," said Lisa Baxt, senior communications manager, Nikon Inc. "Temperley's beautiful designs are taken from her current collection and the Temperley for Nikon case is as stylish as our Nikon COOLPIX S9."

The Temperley for Nikon camera case is crafted in a pink and black chili print from her Fall collection and will feature Temperley's inspiration, "take me everywhere, capture the moment" reminding consumers that photography is always in season, especially during the holidays. The case will be sold with the COOLPIX S9, a sleek, slim, and stylish digital camera from Nikon's Style Series.

The Temperley for Nikon case and COOLPIX S9 package will be available for a limited time only with an MSRP of $249.99. For information on the entire Nikon COOLPIX line, please visit www.nikondigital.com.
