Does anyone have any experience with renting glass? Suggested websites to use, or stay away from? I know of www.rentglass.com, I'm willing to bet that there are more.
Thanks

If you are in Chino, I would suggest, borrowlenses.com. They are in the bay area. Shipping would probably be faster and a little less expensive than some of the other options. Rusty

I was able to reserve it in adavance. Lens showed up right on time. Packaged well and the lens was clean/dust/fingerprint free. Didn't care for the lens itself...but the service from lensrental was top notch! 5DIII | 40D | 17-40 f4L | Tamron 28-75 2.8 | 50 1.4 | 70-200 2.8L | Oly Zuiko 50 macro | Tamron 1.4x

Thanks for all the info guys! I'm going to be renting a 70-200 f/4 to see how I like the lens before I make the purchase. Looking forward to testing it out. -Keith
