"My purpose for hiring was to try before buying. The procedure was easy to follow but very professional. Costs are competitive and staff are helpful and communicative, (in my case exciptional weather conditions delayed delivery, but I was kept informed by e-mail). Will hire again. Highly recommended. "
"A good business idea with excellent service. Will use again."

"This was my first dealing with Lenses For Hire, I can tell you it will NOT be my last. The service I received from them was First Class.
I hired wide angle lens to take with me on my trip to Orkney over New Year (29th Dec - 4th Jan). I ordered it in the early hours of 23rd Dec, it was dispatched that day and I received it by lunchtime on Xmas Eve (a full 4 days early due to the festive holidays). I therefore had the lens in my possession for 9 days (not including delivery day and return day) yet I was only charged for my requested 7 day hire. The fact that you have the lens for the full hire period is outstanding.
The packaging of the lens was very good, and all I had to do was remove a strip of duct tape to open the box. Inside, the lens was extremely well protected by foam panels, which were cutted to shape. Thought had obviously gone into the deisgn of this, and it made returning the lens a breeze. All I had to do was pop it back in, reseal the box with tape and stick on the return label. Simple!
The lens itself was also fantastic, it was in great condition, was protected by a professional grade filter and supplied with a copy of the manual (should you need to refer to it).
Overall, I cannot commend this company enough. The quality of their product, the low cost of the service (with NO deposit required in most cases) and the sheer ease of the transaction is just fantastic.
I loook forward to using them again in the future, and if you haven't done so, I recommend you give them a try!"
"Well, what can I say? Fantastic service from a 1st class company. Received the lens well in advance with full instructions. I lost the original email from the company, emailed their support and a reply within 1 hour, with the original email attached. Sent back as requested and was emailed with updates on a daily basis. I'm just starting out in my photography business and cannot afford to buy all the lenses I want up front. LensesForHire allows me to get the glass I want, when I need it, at a price that's affordable, without deposit. Thank you, Bruce www.bbphotographysouthwest.co.uk"
"Extremely helpful staff, trouble-free hire of equipment in excellent condition.
Will definitely hire again from these guys if the opportunity arises."
"Very knowledgeable staff and a clear focus on fantastic customer service. LensesForHire definitely know their trade and will make an effort to ensure that you get the best service they can give you. Highly recommended!"
"This was the first time I've hired a lens, and it was a reassuringly good experience. Lenses for Hire provide a friendly, flexible service and good quality equipment. I was able to extend the lens hire period without a problem. I'll definitely use them again when I want to try a lens."
"Lensesfor Hire delivered everything that they promised and more. They were exceptionally helpful in arranging my order and were more than happy in accommodating my special requests. The lenses arrived on time and were in excellent working order. They offered a very personal service when needed and provided more than a 'box-selecting' web experience. I will definitley be using them again and will recommend them to others."
"Lensesforhire.co.uk was Awesome. I searched around the net to find the best deals and while some sites have cheap rental cost their shipping is outrageous. L4H was the best deal shipped and Insured. I was able to speak to one of their staff members like a friend with my concerns and needs. In the end I got a wonderful lens that came with a high quality UV lens and a hood. If I was staying in the UK longer I would most definitely rent through them again. I think one of the best parts is that they are not pushy about having their lens back as soon as you finish your rental; they give you a day or so to box it back up and ship it back to them. "
"A very fast efficient service that gives you exactly what you ask for, easy to order, lenses I rented (a 17-55mm f2.8 Nikon and a 12-24mm F4 Nikon) arrived promptly at 9am on the day requested, they worked beautifully but unfortunately the weather didnt while I had them.
I have already made plans to rent further lenses next month and also looking down the road a couple more months will probably be calling again. An excellent service."
"This was my first time using Lenses For Hire, they were superb in every way. The ease of transaction, customer support. The lens was in excellent condition, and could not have done the job without it. I look forward to using Lenses for hire time and time again!"
"We hired the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 L IS USM
and Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM. The big zoom lens was indispensible for our honeymoon safari. There's no way we could have taken such fantastic pictures without it (e.g. a leopard up a tree several hundred feet away). Being amateurs, we couldn't afford to buy it, so being able to hire it at a reasonable expense was great. Both lenses arrived on time, well-packaged and in good condition. We opted to take the lenses back in person, which worked fine. Brilliant service all round."
