"Process was simple and they had just what I needed to rent. Very flexible too. I used the local pick-up option. Two thumbs up."
"company was great to work with. rented a Nikon 28-300 and came as advertised. needed it by a certain date and no problems. the return process is simple too. and they send you a reminder to make sure you get it back on time."
"BorrowLenses.com is amazing. Great rates and the equipment is always available when I need it. I also love how helpful everyone is there with any questions I may have. They also give me feedback on what they suggest I should rent for particular shoots I am doing. I am definitely going to continue renting through them. "
"Borrow Lenses is a godsend! I'm a budding photographer who can't buy all the lenses I want, but still has to get the job done. Borrow Lenses makes that possible for me. I've rented the Canon 70-200mm 2.8 II and the 85mm 1.2 lenses for photoshoots and weddings. $5k worth of lenses for a fraction of the price! The satisfaction on the clients face makes it an even better value!"
"I rented from BorrowLenses for the first time. I got a Canon 24-70mm L for a week. it arrived on time and in perfect condition. Instructions on rentals were very clear. I extended my order for 3 days with great ease. Customer service was extremely courteous and prompt. Perfect experience and would definitely recommend them to anyone."
"I had a wonderful experience with BorrowLenses. I was a little unsure about how the mailing process would work, but the order was perfect, everything arrived on time, and it was all hassle free. Communication was efficient and courteous. I felt that I was in very competent hands every step of the way. I will absolutely use BorrowLenses again when renting equipment in the future and I highly recommend them for anyone interested in beefing up their photography and/or video shoots."
"Prices are reasonable and the rental/return process is very clear. I plan to use BorrowLenses.com again. "
"I've rented from BorrowLenses.com twice, both times getting the Canon EF 400mm f/5.6 L USM lens. First time I rented the lens and service was excellent. Second time the lens was unfortunately soft - all images from this lens were just not as sharp as I had expected.
Comparing images from this 400mm f/5.6 lens to those from a combination of my Canon EF 2x II extender and Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L USM lens, (all images at f/8 and same ISO and shutter speed), the 400mm f/5.6 lens gave images that were at best comparable to the combination of 70-200 and 2x extender. I know that this isn't how it should be (and wasn't when I first rented this lens several months earlier) - the 400mm f/5.6 lens should produce significantly sharper images. It appears I just got a bad lens. I wouldn't avoid renting from BorrowLenses.com again, (they are conveniently located for me), but I will certainly check the image quality immediately and not wait until I get home from my vacation.

"Having completed my first rental from Borrowlenses.com, I am happy to say that they haven't seen the last of me! I am very pleased with the entire transaction from start to finish! I rented the Sigma 500mm just to see if this size lens actually put me where I needed to be from the amateur wildlife photography perspective. I am pleased to report that my findings were exactly what I had hoped. 500mm is the jump I needed to get into the range I try to operate in, you know, the one where you don't have to scare the animals you are trying to photograph just to get close enough. The staff was also very helpful in extending my rental when I didn't want to give the lens back. Unfortunately I finally have relinquished it, however, I will be renting again the next time I have time to travel. Thanks again!!"
"This process was so easy. Go online, choose a lens, fill out the forms and payment, receive your lens in two days! Returns are even simpler. Use the packing it came in and the return label provided and drop off at FedEx and you are done. The lens I rented was in perfect condition. I highly recommend Borrowlens.com for lens rental. "
"I just finished renting an ultra wide angle lens. The lens was in excellent condition and exceeded all my expectations. Having the right "tool" for any specific job is essential to good results. With BorrowLenses I have access to more pieces of equipment and can better determine which pieces I will use with enough frequency to justify the expense of purchasing. "
"Borrow Lenses is the best.
This is my second rental from them and there will be many more in the future. I am a part time professional. I have my own set of lenses for what I do most but when I have a special request that involves different equipment that I don't need every day Borrow Lenses is the spot.
It is almost effortless to rent from Borrow Lenses. The well packed shipment arrives on time with a return label to ship it back.
You can't go wrong.

"I LOVE BorrowLenses.com!!!!!
I am a member of the Chicago Alliance of African American Photographers here in Chicago and I maintain the website for our group. I will make sure I share my experience with your company and provide a link on our site!"
"I've been looking at getting a new camera for some time but had no way to get my hands on one to test it. The local stores didn't carry the Nikon D7000 and I didn't want to drop that much money without being able to 'play' with the camera to see if I liked it. I knew you could rent lenses but I didn't know about bodies to go with them...along comes BorrowLenses.com. They had the body that I wanted to rent and you can choose the incrememnt of time you'd like to keep it for. THe ordering process was simple; I borrowed the D7000 and a 15-70mm F2.8 lens and selected the date I wanted them to arrive. You do have to be there to sign for the order so they know you got it. They offer insurance as well, in case something should happen to the equipment (which I ordered) and it was all very painless. The package arrived the day I wanted and everything worked beautifully. I used it for a week, packed it back up in the box it came in, and dropped it at FedEx for return shipping. They send you an email when they get it back to let you know your order is complete.
The camera came precharged so I could get right to shooting. No manual was included (I knew that when I ordered) but it is easily downloadable from the web. Everything worked perfectly and the glass was clear. I would definitely recommend using them to test out equipment before you buy!"
"FANTASTIC SERVICE!! I have rented from BorrowLenses.com several times and each time I am more pleased than the last time. Top Notch service and whenever I have a lens that I need to rent I will definitely rent from them. "
