"Rented the Canon 24mm 1.4L and am in LOVE with the lens. T&BLenses shipped my lens out fast and I received it exactly when I needed it. It was packaged very well and the lens was in like new condition. Shipping it back was quick and easy. I reused the box and packing material it came with and used wrapping material with a postage paid address label on it to wrap around the box. Then I just dropped off at my local USPS for shipment. I will definetly be using T&Blenses again as they were the cheapest option I have found online and offer fast shipping. Very pleased with my transaction. "

"I rented the Canon EF 10-22mm wide angle lens. I was very happy with the entire rental process.

TryandBuyLens.com was the lowest price I could find after scouring the internet for sites to rent lenses.

I am very happy with the experience and will definitely use this company again in the future.

"Rented the Canon EF-S 10-22mm. The price from tryandbuylens.com for rental+shipping on this lens was the lowest I could find of the 20 online vendors that I checked. The lens arrived on-time and in good condition. Experienced no problems with the lens. Shipping back was straightforward. I exchanged some email with customer service; they responded promptly and were helpful. They even gave me a free extension on the lens because of the holidays.

Two gotchas: (1) They require a signature on delivery. This complicated delivery/pickup. But this was clearly spelled out ahead of time, so I can't complain too much. (2) They don't do advance scheduling, i.e. you can't reserve a lens starting in three weeks. Again, clearly spelled out ahead of time, hinted at in their name (they're for trying+buying rather than renting for a specific shoot), and no doubt part of how they keep the prices low.

"What a great business! I'm so happy that they offer this rental service for photographers, otherwise I would have no way to try different lens' prior to purchase or for a specific job.

Very prompt and professional, I would definitely recomend this business.

"The Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM lens that I rented from tryandbuylens.com became a wonderful experience. The sale of the service and the the price was a good deal. If I ever have a need to rent camera equipment I will go back to Tryandbuylens.com "

"Canon EF 24-70mm L f2.8 lens was in perfect condition, very clean. I picked up the lens as I needed it the next day. The person delivering the lens was waiting at the meeting spot when I arrived. They seem pretty flexible on meeting times too. The price was good for a week-long rental."

"Rented the popular Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S VR lens. I wanted to try out the lens for myself since I have read many great reviews about it. I don't have the money to buy the lens so was looking for a company for a possible rental. This company was great. I am local to them so was able to arrange a local pickup. Lens was in great condition and the employee who handled the transaction was very nice and very helpful. Very good experience. Will be renting from them again. "
