Camera rental places in the UK?

[Yella Fella]

Guys,

I need to hire a camera 5D mkII, really don't want to buy another as I'm trying to ask my mate to assist me in a late december wedding; he has just recently sold all his gear so having to hire a camera for him now.

Please advise of any good companies in the uk? I only need it for one day in Chesterfield and I guess that you'd have to hire it for a weekend or week if that?

This is the only site I know of that do great condition Cameras and Lenses. Never personally used it, but whenever I've heard of local videographers and such renting equipment, this is what they use.

because of the whole video thing, LOADS of places rent 5dmk2s now.

Unfortunately, Milton keynes calumet isn't a real shop - so don't hire kit out If you ask them really nicely though they might be able to fetch one from their drummond street store for you though, they have staff go up and down quite a bit. Their warehouse is by the little brickhill level crossing, opposite red bull.

Do you only need the body or are lenses/accessories needed too? I know of someone near MK that was looking into doing rentals from next year and might already have the kit.
