<h2>Nikon Canada Offers Picture-Perfect Holiday Gift Ideas for Photographers of Every Skill Level</h2>
<p><strong>Mississauga, ON October, 27, 2009</strong> &#8211; Nikon Canada today announced its 2009 holiday lineup, including COOLPIX compact digital cameras and digital SLRs for novice and  experienced photographers alike. With industry-leading innovation, advanced technology and easy-to-use functions, Nikon offers not only a wide range of camera gift suggestions, but also one-of-a-kind features and creative photography ideas for the season.</p>
<p>Nikon Canada is pleased to introduce a new holiday lineup filled with cameras that are great for giving and certain to help make capturing the seasons special moments easy and fun, said Gregory Flasch, National Advertising and Communications Manager, Nikon Canada. From the Nikon D5000, which brings a new level of versatility to photography and HD video, to the COOLPIX S1000pj, the worlds first camera featuring a built-in projector, Nikon offers a unique and creative perspective to holiday photography as well as perfect gift ideas for all the budding and experienced photographers on your list.</p>
<p><strong>Nikon Digital SLR Cameras</strong></p>
<p><strong>Capturing Beautiful Holiday Photos Has Never Been Easier: Nikon D3000</strong><br />
<div class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://www.photoxels.com/nikon-d3000.html" target="eS"><img alt="Nikon D3000" src="http://www.photoxels.com/images/Nikon/d3000/nikon-d3000-150.jpg" title="Nikon D3000" width="150" height="133" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Nikon D3000</p></div>It has never been simpler to dive into digital SLR photography. The freedom and choices offered by a digital SLR may seem imposing to those used to automated point-and-shoot cameras, but with one of the latest additions to Nikon’s family of quality DX-format digital SLRs, taking true, sharp and beautiful photographs couldn’t be easier.<br />
<span id="more-6367"></span><br />
The D3000’s built-in Guide mode teaches users the art of digital SLR photography by guiding them step-by-step through features and settings. With its user-friendly interface, the Guide mode assists photographers in choosing shooting modes for a variety of situations, and users have a choice of Easy or Advanced operation.  In Easy mode, the camera provides information on different shooting scenarios such as auto, no flash, distant subjects, close ups, moving subjects, night portraits, among others. Users select the ideal setting and shoot with ease to achieve a desired effect, or learn more about specific camera settings. There are also sample images, which illustrate the effects of different photo-taking techniques. When the Advanced mode is selected, the camera will provide tips on what settings to use. Imagine freezing fast action with amazing sharpness, or getting more imaginative with softened backgrounds. The D3000 can show users how to turn their creativity into reality.</p>
<p>The 10.2 megapixel D3000 packs all the innovation and advanced engineering for which Nikon is famous into a compact, lightweight body. Additional features of the Nikon D3000 include Nikon DX-format CCD sensor; an 11-point autofocus system for tack-sharp results; Nikon’s exclusive Scene Recognition System to analyze composition before taking a shot and automatically optimizing exposure, autofocus and white balance; and a 3.0-inch LCD monitor. A great gift for the budding photographer — or the perfect camera to preserve holiday smiles!</p>
<p>Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP):<br />
D3000 Set with AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 G VR Lens &#8211; $599.95</p>
<p><strong>Record special moments from almost any angle — in HD: Nikon D5000</strong><br />
<div class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://www.photoxels.com/nikon-d5000.html" target="eS"><img alt="Nikon D5000" src="http://www.photoxels.com/images/Nikon/d5000/nikon-d5000-150.jpg" title="Nikon D5000" width="150" height="125" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Nikon D5000</p></div>The holiday season offers endless opportunities to capture action — during family gatherings, at the holiday dinner table or playing in the snow — especially when users are able to take great shots and HD videos with sound from almost any angle. Combining famous Nikon quality, advanced performance and functionality, the D5000 opens the door to a level of creative expression never before possible in a camera so easy-to-use. The D5000’s versatile 2.7-inch Vari-angle LCD monitor can be used in its normal position flush against the camera, but is also able to swing out, rotate and tilt for exciting new and imaginative shooting angles — perfect for capturing memorable moments of the little ones under the tree, up on stage at their holiday recitals, or while out in the crowds at the local holiday parade. Hold the camera up in the air or down low to the ground to record expressions from a whole new level.</p>
<p>The D5000, featuring Nikon’s exclusive EXPEED™ advanced digital image processing system, enables users to capture stunning images and HD movie clips effortlessly. This leading-edge technology provides the power to process the large amount of data generated by the D5000’s 12.3-megapixel CMOS sensor and advanced functions, realizing excellent resolution, long tonal scale and superb colour. </p>
<p>With 19 different automatic Scene Modes including Candlelight, Silhouette, Portrait and more, the D5000 offers point-and-shoot convenience and simplicity for amazing photos in a wide variety of shooting situations. Users simply choose the mode, and the D5000 does the rest, automatically adjusting exposure and other settings to create the perfect shot. </p>
<p>Other exciting features include Scene Recognition with Face Detection; Intelligent Live View Auto Focus (AF) which includes Subject Tracking that locks focus on a moving subject, even if the subject moves out of the frame and returns within three seconds; and 11-point AF for exceptional coverage with four AF modes (Single-point AF, Dynamic-area AF, Auto-area AF and 3D-tracking AF) providing an autofocus option for every situation. </p>
<p>MSRP:<br />
D5000 Body Only &#8211; $829.95<br />
D5000 Set with AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 G VR Lens &#8211; $939.95<br />
D5000 Set with the AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-105mm f3.5-5.6 G ED VR lens -<br />
$1,139.95</p>
<p><strong>Nikon COOLPIX Cameras</strong></p>
<p>Nikon COOLPIX offers a versatile, compact choice for people looking for a stylish camera packed with exceptional features. All COOLPIX models include Nikon’s Smart Portrait System comprising Face Priority AF, which detects up to 12 faces; Smile Mode, which automatically releases the shutter when the subject smiles; Blink Warning, which notifies the photographer when a subject has blinked; and In-Camera Red-Eye Fix™. Nikon’s VR (Vibration Reduction) Image Stabilization feature helps achieve blur-free images in low-light and unsteady conditions, while the Scene Auto Selector automatically selects from one of six modes (Portrait, Night Portrait, Landscape, Night Landscape, Close-Up or Backlight) to provide the best possible shooting results.</p>

<div class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://www.photoxels.com/nikon-s1000pj.html" target="eS"><img alt="Nikon Coolpix S1000pj" src="http://www.photoxels.com/images/Nikon/s1000pj/nikon-s1000pj-150.jpg" title="Nikon Coolpix S1000pj" width="150" height="97" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Nikon Coolpix S1000pj</p></div>Holiday parties and gatherings are the perfect venue for taking great photos… and sharing them on the spot! Imagine watching a slideshow of photos from Christmas morning with the entire family without having to connect to a computer, television or projector. The 12.1 megapixel COOLPIX S1000pj is the world’s first compact digital camera* to feature a built-in projector, allowing users to quickly and easily project movie clips or photos on to any flat surface, at up to 40 inches in size with just the touch of a button. View holiday photos with friends and family instantly as a slide show — complete with music, transitions and great effects — or individually. Additional features of the COOLPIX S1000pj include a 2.7-inch high-resolution LCD monitor, 5x zoom-NIKKOR lens with wide-angle capability, 16 handy Scene Modes for optimized shooting in various settings and four movie modes with sound. The S1000pj also includes Nikon’s all new Skin Softening feature that is designed to both smooth and even skin tones. </p>

conducted by Nikon Corporation).</p>
<p>MSRP: COOLPIX S1000pj &#8211; $499.95, including a projector stand and remote<br />

<p><strong>Holiday fun at your fingertips… with touch screen technology: COOLPIX S70 and COOLPIX S230</strong><br />
<div class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 160px"><img alt="Nikon Coolpix S70" src="http://www.photoxels.com/images/Nikon/s70/nikon-s70-150.jpg" title="Nikon Coolpix S70" width="150" height="108" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Nikon Coolpix S70</p></div><strong>The COOLPIX S70:</strong> Nikon’s latest touch-screen model features a large 3.5-inch Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) display, which combines with Nikon’s innovative Clear Colour Display technology to provide vivid colour reproduction and sharp contrast.  Along with next generation touch-screen controls offering intuitive fingertip shooting and myriad playback options, the COOLPIX S70 captures impressive HD videos at 1280 x 720 pixels (720p).</p>
<p>The COOLPIX S70’s highly responsive capacitive touch screen technology allows for an immediate response with the slightest touch of the display’s glass surface, making photo-taking quick and fun. The Touch Shutter feature offers a completely button-free experience, letting users focus on a subject and take the photo by simply touching the camera’s display. To view photos, a two-finger pinching motion lets users zoom in or out — or switch between thumbnail and full-screen views.</p>
<p>Additional features include 12.1 megapixels of sharp resolution, a precision 5x Zoom-NIKKOR lens; Nikon’s Smart Portrait System featuring the new Skin Softening function, which detects and analyzes a framed subject’s skin and then adjusts smoothness; Nikon’s Easy Auto Mode, which selects a scene mode to match the intended shot for optimal results; Subject Tracking, follows the subject’s movement to ensure clear focus and quick response, even if the subject moves out of the frame and returns within three seconds; and five functions to reduce image blur such as a high sensitivity range up to ISO 6400, lens-shift VR and motion detection.

The camera’s bright and clear 3.0-inch touch control LCD features a series of exciting playback options and advanced shooting features, while the speed of fingertip scrolling through photos makes sharing and editing images easy. </p>
<p>Use a fingertip to lock autofocus and exposure on a subject by simply touching the subject’s face on the screen. When used in conjunction with the Portrait One-Touch Zoom function available in Portrait or Night Portrait scene modes, another simple touch of the screen commands the camera to set its three-step automatic zoom to deliver the right amount of framing for waist, bust or close-up shots. </p>
<p>Additional features include a stylus which can be used with a variety of input, retouch and image enhancement functions; a Paint Function, which enables memos, drawings, colourful borders or stamps to be added directly to images; and an independent Handwritten Memo function, which allows memos or drawings entered on the touch screen to be stored as JPEG files. The S230 is available in gloss red, purple and black.</p>
