Nikon Re-Launches NikonNet.com With New Photo Sharing and Albuming Features

MELVILLE, N.Y., June 4 /PRNewswire/ -- Nikon, the world leader in photography, today re-launched NikonNet, the definitive photography website for photo sharing and education. The new site boasts a completely redesigned back-end and a suite of new features that make uploading, storing, editing and sharing images faster and easier than any other site on the web. NikonNet contains a highly refined navigation system as well as several proprietary tools to create personalized e-cards and photo albums, as well as a unique new photo album slide show.

The site's new community features and improved navigation work seamlessly with the new One Touch Upload To The Web feature on Nikon's new Coolpix® 775 Digital Camera to simply upload photos to the web at the touch of the camera's "transfer" button. In addition, the site's new "Your Turn" community allows NikonNet visitors and members to submit pictures to the Editor's Choice and Publish Your Passion sections for a chance to have their images published on the site and win prizes.

The site brings the photography experience full circle. Visitors can learn about photography through insights from renowned professional photographers, go to www.nikonusa.com for product information, upload photos directly to NikonNet, edit pictures and catalog them into albums. Visitors can also invite friends to view albums, print photos and purchase photo gifts, as well as visit NikonMall.com to purchase hard to find accessories and educational materials online.
