"Excellent lens hire service - I'm semi-pro and can't afford to invest £000's on lenses in one go, so this is perfect as I can pick and choose the most appropriate lenses for each specific job.

The lenses come quickly and well packaged and there's a great selection available. It's also great to not be required to part with near on a £1000 deposit like other hire companies too - it would be great in the future if LFH would start hiring some bodies too."

"I hired a lens for the first time and the one I wanted to try out was the Nikon 70-300mm Vr for 10 days to try it out, and I loved it. The customer service was exceptional, it arrived promptly and there were no problems.

Highly recommended!!"

"I hired a 18-200 for a holiday to avoid carrying a heavy bag all day, and the service I received from LensesForHire was second to none. They delivered it to my work address to avoid bouncing deliveries and were still polite when it got back to them late!

Can't recommend them enough."

"Excellent and professional service. Answered all my queries promptly and were very open to discuss variations in their hire policy. Equipment of a very high standard as well."

"This was the first time I've hired a lens and the whole process was far easier (and somewhat less expensive) than I'd expected. The website is simple to use and easily navigated and the FAQ section, although necessarily quite extensive, is written in a very clear and uncomplicated manner and covers just about every query I can imagine a potential customer might need addressing.

Extending my hire period for a couple of days was easily done and the couple of times I had to speak to representatives of the company I found the experience entirely positive.

An easy to negotiate website, a simple transaction, good communication - altogether a positive experience which I have no hesitation in recommending."

"I have nothing but praise for lenses for hire. Everything was positive and nothing negative. The 24-70 2.8 L lens (which I required for 2 weddings and a portrait shoot) was excellent and in good working order. And the way everything was handled including all email communications was excellent. I highly recommend them and will be using them in the future."

"From the start of dealing with LensesForHire I was impressed. The availability check and ordering process was simple to use and I was not charged until the day of the start of the hire. I had the largest lens they do, the 500mm F4 L IS, which arrived by their own courier in good time. The lens itself was very clean optically and easy to use.For those not familiar with this type of lens there was even a manual to help. I used it for three motorsport events in four days and it did not miss a beat and the image quality was second to known. I highly recommend the company who even went as far as to recommend the best and cheapest way of returning the lens. All in all a good experience from start to finish."

"This is the first time I have used Lenses for Hire so was not certain what to expect. I needed an extra wide angle lens for use at a wedding and I saw their service suggested on a forum. The booking process was easy and the staff very helpful. They had a wide range of equipment and an instant availability checking system which proved easy to use. Booking was straightforward as their website had covered just about every question I needed answered. They had the lens I required in stock and it was available for the period that I needed to hire it for. Delivery was on time as promised and the lens arrived well packed, complete with lens hood and protection filter and was in tip top condition. Throughout the whole process I was dealt with in a courteous, efficient and professional manner. Their prices are excellent and the fact that an expensive deposit wasn't required was a big selling point. All in all I was delighted with the service I received from them and would not hesitate recommending them to anyone in need of a specialist lens for a certain job or even if they just wanted to treat themselves to an exotic piece of glass that they wouldn't normally be able to afford. I will most definitely be using their services again. Highly recommended."

"I didn't know anything about Lenses for Hire apart from a google search. Prices looked reasonable and so decided to call them up.
Fantastic customer service from them from start to end.

Lens comes fully packed and you have to pay return postage, so make sure you factor that into the overall lens hire (usually about £9 for mid range lens).

Lens came with filter and hood too, which was a bonus!

They deliver the lens the day before your hire period starts and you send it back the day after your lens hire ends - so that's a bonus.

I have already ordered a second lens for hire which I've received and enjoyed too.

Would highly recommend them. "

"My first dealing with Lenses For Hire, and it was an easy, well communicated and smooth process. The item turned up when I was told it would, and their courier company picked it up when it was expected.

The lens was in perfect condition, glass/filter were spotless and being able to hire the lens allowed me to evaluate it before deciding to buy one for less than 10% of its retail cost.

Well recommended and I'll be hiring again for special occasions!"

"Great service and prompt delivery. Willing to extend rental subject to availability with ease. Very friendly customer service and the preferred courier company used also was very good. Will use again definately."

"I hired a Canon 500 lens for a wildlife project, fantastic lens, great service from LFH and value for money. Would strongly recommend and definitely use them again. "

"I hired a Canon zoom lens from this company and found the service faultless. The website was easy to use, communication good, and the lens arrived when they said it would, well packed and with useful return instructions. The lens was in mint condition and was well worth the rental. I would definitely use LensesForHire again."

"I hired a 24mm f/1.4 lens from them and found the website very easy to use. Also they have been very reactive, professional and friendly via email. The pricing sounds just right as well.
Would recommend the service and will certainly hire from them again!"

"very good contact. very helpful. deal with them again.many thanks r clayton,"
