The Nikon 1 "Small Moments are Huge" Program Joins Celebrities and Consumers in an Online Community to Share Photos of Life's Great Moments on Facebook for a Good Cause
MELVILLE, N.Y., June 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Nikon Inc. has launched the Small Moments are Huge online community photo gallery to encourage digital camera users to celebrate meaningful, everyday moments. The new community, which will be hosted on the Nikon USA page on Facebook, brings together an impressive roster of celebrity Guest Stars and their fans to inspire and promote the sharing of their small but memorable moments.
The Small Moments are Huge program kicked off with the help of some of today's most influential personalities in television, film, music and technology. Giving fans a unique opportunity to get an inside look into the small moments that create joy and inspiration in these otherwise private lives, Nikon has teamed up with actor, producer and social media influencer Ashton Kutcher; actress and recording artist Hilary Duff; Derek Hough from Dancing with the Stars; lifestyle expert and tech startup CEO Brit Morin; and documentarians Dave Lingwood, Ben Nemtin, and Duncan and Jonnie Penn of The Buried Life. Each Guest Star will have their own photo gallery with images captured exclusively by Nikon's revolutionary Nikon 1 J1 cameras. Combining versatility and creativity like never before, the Nikon 1 system offers amazing image quality with a balance of high speed performance, take-anywhere-portability and the freedom of a compact interchangeable lens system.
"Nikon encourages people to capture and share memorable moments in their lives, big or small, and with the introduction of the Nikon 1 advanced camera with interchangeable lens system, we're making it easier for consumers to capture these moments through high quality images with confidence," said Lisa Baxt, senior communications manager for Nikon Inc. "Through the Small Moments are Huge program, people will get the chance to share the important moments in their lives in an online community where everyday inspiration and fun can be celebrated."
Fans can join the Guest Stars and upload their own "small moments" to the community gallery on Nikon's Facebook page at

"As a new mom, I know how important it is to cherish and preserve everyday moments," said Hilary Duff. "This program is a great way for me to personally share my moments, and I hope my fans participate by picking up a camera to capture and share the things that inspire them, make them laugh, or comfort them."
I hope Hilary does an ad with them like Ashton Kutcher did.
