CameraLends

Renting camera gear is a hassle. You need to find a rental shop, call for availability, book your rental, and drive to the store during business hours (which are never convenient) to pick up -- unless it's the weekend, of course, in which case you're out of luck because they're all closed! Renting online and having it shipped seems like a more appealing option. But do you really want to pay 3-day pricing for gear you only need for a day? In addition to shipping costs? And forget about last minute bookings -- you'll need a few days lead time.

So what do you do when it's hours before a Friday evening shoot and you realize your camera is busted? Rental shops are closed and there's no time for a mail order. But CameraLends can still help! CameraLends is a community of photographers who lend and rent gear directly from each other. So when you're in a bind, you can reach out for help from a local photographer.

With CameraLends, rentals are more flexible since you're dealing with an individual. You can drive to the lender's house for pick up, meet at a coffee shop, return to their office, etc. CameraLends lenders are local and understand what it's like to be in a jam, so we try to help with last minute rental requests. And why pay for a longer rental than you need? Lenders are willing to do 1-day rentals to save you some cash.

Do you have extra cameras lying around? Lend them out worry-free on CameraLends. We guarantee that if anything goes awry with your rental, your gear will be replaced. It's a risk-free way to earn some cash back on your pricey collection.

Save money. Reduce stress. Rent locally with CameraLends.
