"Terrific service! I rented a Sony FS100 for a music video shoot this past weekend. The RayKo Photo pickup location in SoMa is super convenient and is open late. The camera had the latest firmware, which is a great, since I've rented this camera from other places online in the past and they did not have the latest firmware. Competitive price. My only regret is that they have a 3 day minimum rental. I'd love to be able to have a shorter rental window, since most of my shoots are one day and the camera ends up sitting around the rest of the time. Still, I would definitely go back to these guys again!"
"This is one of those companies that offers incredible service ,and great product, and delivers quickly.
A rare example of what is truly a great company. These people get it.
I orderd a 200-400mm lens and took some great pictures. The service and support, and advice was above and beyond.
Highly recommend them!"
"Rented a Sigma 50mm 1.4 (Canon). Transaction was easy; The lens arrived on time and in perfect condition. I would definitely rent from BorrowLenses again. I rate the entire experience a 10."
"Compared prices between several different rental sites and BorrowLenses.com was the best deal. Order arrived exactly as promised and the lens was perfect. Got great pictures and because I was able to try out a lens, I know what to ask "Santa" for. Overall experience was great and will definitely use them again in the future."
"Awesome customer service. Loved my experience renting from them and will definitely rent from them in the future. Equipment was fabulous as well. "
"I've always had great experiences with Borrow Lenses, but this particular one was above and beyond. I was shooting a wedding on a barrier island in New Jersey the weekend after Hurricane Sandy hit. The wedding location was one of the few places that was pretty much unharmed, and they got power back just in time. I was worried about the camera equipment getting to me in time. It was supposed to be delivered to one of the islands that was hit hard. Cars could not get on or off the island. Borrow Lenses made it easy to hold the equipment at an off shore Fed Ex place and I was able to get the equipment in time. as usual it was great stuff!"
"I order the 24-70mm 2.8 lens Nikon, last November 2-5, I used it for a concert.
And all the photos are amazing, lightings are really good. I would want to rent it from them again next time."
"I rented a 70-300 lens by Cannon for the weekend for a field trail and also to take photos of Labrador pups. It was an awesome lens, very easy to use, not that heavy and no shake in the 300 mode with the stabelizer on # 2. Great lens and I would not hesitate to rent from them again. Simple as pie!"
"First time user - LOVED the simplicity and ease of getting my order. I needed an alternate shipping address and simple scan sorted that out. Lens arrived in very good and clean condition and was happy with the experience.
It was let down momentarily when the return process was updated prior to all the parts being check and I got a rather frightening automatic system email saying I hadn't returned all the parts and if I didn't return ASAP with tracking info they'd go buy a replacement and charge my card without asking.....
Makes sense, but it freaked me out.... turns out - they did have all the parts.
I will use again for sure!"
"Great service. I have rented lenses from them twice and had a great experience both times. I picked up and dropped off the rental at a local camera store but I'm sure the shipping option would be just as easy. The equipment was in great condition and very clean. Plan to use their service more in the future."
"Excellent Company!!!!! Excellent products to rent! I will definitely be renting lenses again!"
"We were in the middle of a hurricane when my rental needed to be returned to Fed Ex and I called them to let them know. They extended the rental by 2 days without any problem so I could get to the store by then. What great customer service. I will definitely use them for all my rentals in the future."
"First time using BorrowLenses. I wanted to try the Sigma 50-500 on a Nikon D3200 for wildlife at Great Teton National Park to see if it worked properly with fast focusing. Weather conditions were difficult but the lens performed well with poor light and long shots, as long as I used a fixed large lens window support. I preferred to use this lens without its stabilizer feature, the drifting became distracting. Overall experience was good. I will buy this telephoto. Thank you for your efficient service."
"Very pleased, would definitely rent again from borrowlenses! "
"First time I used them and it was a great experience. I opted for an in-store pickup at a local camera store. The camera came packed very securely, operated well, and pickup/dropoff was smooth. Oh, almost forgot: my first camera of choice was unavailable so they bumped me up to a better camera at no charge. Will do business again"
