  "account": "Photographers with access to Nikon Japan's Nikon Direct storefront are treated to a unique offering: a neck warmer and paper cups inspired by the Nikon Z 58mm f/0.95 S Noct lens. While the paper cups and neck warmer may not be the most significant new release, they certainly make for a distinctive accessory. The neck warmer features a fleece fabric that resembles the focus ring of the lens, with the Noct script embroidered below the focal length and aperture markers. The paper cups come in a pack of 25, featuring a design that resembles various elements of the lens, such as a control ring, LED screen, and tripod foot. Unfortunately, these exclusive items are only available to Japanese domestic customers and priced at 4,500 yen ($29, £21, AU$40) for the neck warmer and 1,500 yen ($9.50, £7.15, AU$13.44) for the set of paper cups. The Nikon Z 58mm f/0.95 S Noct lens, however, is a significant release, being the fastest Nikkor lens ever made. Released in 2019, it carries a high price tag of $7,997 / £8,299, showcasing Nikon's optical engineering at its best.",
