"These folks were wonderful. I placed the order and then had concerns with scheduled ship date as UPS and FedEX often grant themselves an extra day to Alaska arbitrarily. The BorrowLenses folks went "the extra mile" to ensure I received my order in time. They have a solid repeat customer in me for sure!"

"great experience. I have rented from another online camera rental company in the past and never had any problems with them but this time I needed the canon 70-200mm f/2.8 II lens and the other website didn't have this available for the time I needed. So, I decided to give borrowlenses a try. It was painfree and simple. their notification system is better than the other site, and I appreciate that because I liked getting confirmation that the lens was received back on time.

I was a bit surprised that it came in a brown cardboard shipping box rather than a sturdy Pelican case (like the other company). The box had clearly been used many, many times already as judged by the number of stickers and amount of packing tape on it. However, it did have foam padding in it which obviously packed the lens just fine for shipping both to and from my house.

I will definitely use them again!

"I rented a Nikon Teleconverter from BorrowLenses. Since I live near one of their pick-up locations, the whole thing was incredibly easy. I rented for "the weekend". I was able to pick the TC first thing Friday morning and, as a bonus, I got to keep it until Tuesday morning because my pick-up/drop-off location is closed on Mondays!"

"Superb customer service (both via phone and email)! Reps are very knowledgeable but more importantly, very responsive. The website is very user-friendly--and the process is extremely simple.

Would use it again for my rental over and over again. Strongly recommend BorrowLenses.com to anyone!

"BorrowLenses was great to deal with, prices were reasonable and service was perfect. I especially liked the fact that I could pick up the lens in San Francisco instead of having to pay for airfreight to Pittsburgh before my trip. I will definitely use them again."

"This was a great rental experience. Superior to local rental on quality and price. The insurance option put BorrowLenses.com over the top. Local places on insure their interest against your credit. This is a big advantage and everything ran without fail. I plan to use them again really soon."

"Great service. I heard about them from a blog I used to read (Gizmodo) and have been waiting for the right time to use their service. Everything about the experience was great. Shipped right on time, hassle free shipping back, they even emailed me a day before I needed to send it back reminding me it was due and giving me the option to extend the rental (for a small fee, but worth it). I would highly recommend this service to ANYONE looking to rent a lens and I look forward to using the service again (hopefully soon!). "

"BorrowLenses.com is perfect for my growing business. I can't afford to stock every lens I need so when I'm getting ready for a wedding and want to try something new or just need to have the perfect lens for the job, they always come through. Prices are great and customer service is top notch!"

"What an easy way to rent a lens before buying! Borrowlenses had exactly what I was looking for, shipped quickly and at an excellent price for a full week's rental. The only downside was the cheap filter that was on the lens, which I hadn't noticed until day 2 of my rental, so those pictures taken with the filter didn't turn out as nice. Luckily the days after made up for it with some great Fall shots of my son and nieces outdoors. Return was simple and customer service was fantastic! Will definitely be using again."

"Used Borrowlenses.com for the first time to rent a load of equipment for a 3 week production in Iceland shooting stills and video, the customer support and quick responses from the team were great and look forwarded to using them again and again on future films."

"Had to rent a few lenses and lighting equipment for my first portrait photo shoot. Everything arrived on time and without no deposit required. Unheard of at Looking Glass in Berkeley. I'm glad my friend found out about this website. Professional and courteous staff at Sarber's Camera in Oakland helped me complete my rental. They even had a killer deal on the Canon 5D mark ii I couldn't pass up when I returned the equipment. I will definitely be renting through BorrowLenses.com again!"

"I am a novice in the online world of equipment rental. But my husband found BorrowLenses.com when I was asked to shoot an event that my digital Leica would not be able to keep up with. We have a Canon film camera...so we knew we wanted to rent a digital SLR body! The Canon 50D, external flash, and extra battery arrived perfectly as promised...worked as if it were a brand new camera...and shipped back quickly right on time! We were VERY happy with the program that BorrowLenses.com has set up and it worked just beautifully for us! We'll do it again in a heartbeat!!! Thank you, BorrowLenses.com for a great experience."

"Renting a lens from Borrowlenses.com was SO easy. They have the absolute latest in lenses. I got the Canon 70-200 f/2.8 IS Mark II. This is a $2500 lens and it was great to be able to rent it for a week to shoot an event! They made it very simple and had a great selection of the latest equipment. "
