HELP needed - Lens hire in the UK

[Ross]

Does anyone know of anywhere in the UK that hires Canon lenses? I've spoken to Hireacamera.co.uk, but they don't - we're actually trying to get our hands on the 100-400 to try. My partner is very disappointed with the results he's getting with his non-Canon setup (well, what can you say :D ) but it's going to be expensive (to put it mildly) to change, so he'd really like to compare results first.. I'll lend him the 10D to try it on...

Ross,

Try http://www.fixationuk.com/. Never used 'em, but they have a good rep.

Thanks, Roger :) Yes, they do have it - I'll have to do some research into getting it sent up here though...

So if anyone knows anywhere in the Midlands...

Hi Ross,

Don't Calumet have a base in the Midlands area? They do in Manchester and rent all Canon gear.

Hope this helps,
Barry
