Camera Gear for Rent


No budget to buy a camera? What? No flash? Now there is no more excuse for you not to take better pictures! More info after the jump.

I had a paid assignment a while ago where my gear just ain't gonna make it. I was shooting a sporting event, and my current gear weren't long enough to reach the subjects from a safe distance. Enter CameraCart.

CameraCart provides camera gear (mostly Canon) for rent. With a wide variety of products for sure you'll find what your looking for.

As a Nikon user, I was really not interested on even trying on Canon (it's a loyalty thing). But when I saw they are offering L lenses, I kicked loyalty's butt out the window and whent ahead and called Cameracart. I ended up renting a 40D and a 70-200 f/4 L. Sweet. They delivered and picked up the items. Now that's great service.

Renting is a great way to get your assignments done, or just try out a product before you buy them. CameraCart has flash units and strobes available so you can even pratice your lighting for all you strobists out there.

So if you are within the metro, give CameraCart a try. And for you Nikon users, there is also one here, but a little more expensive.
