"Once my account was verified, this crew was great. Got my lens in a box with a return FedEx label. Done deal! Easy, efficient and fast! What more could you ask for?"

"BorrowLenses is an outstanding company. Superb prices and the fact that a deposit is not needed is just fantastic. I rented a Glidecam and a Rode VideoMic and both items were brilliant. I will definitely use BorrowLenses again. Thanks for the good service.
Cheers!

"It was easy to reserve the lens we rented, and they were in good shape. I would strongly suggest you take a detailed picture of everything you are renting as proof of what you are receiving, and then again take another picture of the equipment when you return it. This way you don't get into a dispute about some part is damaged or missing and you can't prove it one way or the other, which happened to us. We never used the lens, It stayed in it's pouch, and supposedly the hood is now missing. "

"Great company and fast shipping. Customer service is great and responds quickly. I was worried about renting lenses at first but now I'll always rent them before I buy, as well as renting for special occasions."

"I just rented my first lens from BorrowLenses and it was a great experience! The customer service was very courteous and the lens was in great condition. The packaging and prepared labels made returning the lens seamless! I cannot wait to use their services again!"

"I found BorrowLenses.com last year and have rented a number of lenses from them. I also purchased a very nice used Canon 28-300mm lens earlier this year from them after renting one and loving it. The staff are extremely knowledgeable about all their equipment and can answer your questions, offer suggestions, and make recommendations. Their website is easy to use and the process for checking equipment out and returning it has been very smooth. Their prices seem reasonable to me. I live close to the San Carlos store so haven't used their shipping since I just go pick up my rentals.

I'm a tried and true customer and shout their praises every chance I get.

"First time renting a lens... I chose BorrowLenses based on other reviews and availability of the lens I wanted. Clear and easy scheduling and ordering process, lens arrived on time, worked great, and easy to return. Good email communication on what to expect, when the lens shipped, a reminder just before the return date, and an email confirming they received it back."

"I could not have had a better or an easier experience. It was first time renting a lens so I was nervous, but the process was easy and the product quality was great. Customer service was top notch with quick order confirmations, periodic updates, and reminders on return shipping which was a breeze. The only bad part was that I felll in love with the lens. So after returning the canon 70-200mm f/2.8 L mark II, I ordered my own. I am already planning my next lens rental or even a camera body, but don't dare for a bit in case I get smitten again."

"I've rented from Borrowlenses.com twice now, and both experiences have been wonderful. I rented the Canon 24-70mm f/2.8, and will definitely be buying one for myself as soon as possible.

The process was so easy, the gear in perfect condition, and the customer service was excellent. Two days after I reserved the lens, they came out with a coupon code; when I called about it, I didn't even have to ask for it--they just pulled up my order and applied the discount.

I will definitely rent from here again, and would absolutely recommend them to anyone!

"Excellent customer service!!! The choice of equipment available and the quality is exceptional. BorrowLenses.com offers photographers and others the opportunity to rent equipment they may not need every day as well as the opportunity to try equipment they are interested in purchasing. I rented the Leica M9, 2 Leica lenses and a flash. The cost of this equipment is over $10,000...not a purchase one would want to make without first having the chance to use the equipment and determine if it really is something they MUST own. "

"I love this company! I've rented several times now: camera bodies, lenses, and battery packs. Excellent range of gear, good prices, easy to work with, and A+ customer service. They also run specials you can find on their blog which makes it oh, so much more tempting! I wish they were local so I could save shipping, but oh well."

"100mm to 400mm Canon lense. Lense arrived when it was supposed to but lens case was not with the lens as it had been the prior time that I rented this lense. Instead, lens was in a zip lock plastic bag. Also, lense hood was hard to get on and off, probably because it had been used so many times that threads didn't easily engage. "
