Depends on when kind of lens you're renting.

I rented a 300L 2.8 IS a few months back. I would rather pay the $55 and $6500 deposit rather then buying myself one at $5300 a pop.


So the price of the deposit is higher than the price of the lens? the fuck?

Yeah, it covers the replacement cost of the lens and the potential business lost when the lens isn't available due to damage or lost.

i refuse to rent lenses unless its one ill only ever use once, im not paying 50$ for a few days all the time, id rather just buy one and use it whenever i want


Birthday: 23 Feb 1992 (Male)

Kids these days...
Obviously doesn't have a mortgage, a car loan, 2 kids to feed and other expensive mandatory responsabilities :rolleyes:
I would buy the lens if I could afford it, but I can't.
And I can't be competitive in horse photography with my 50 mm lens or 35-55 kit lens.
