Hire Lenses in Adelaide

Postby asho on Tue Oct 02, 2007 9:37 pm

Does anyone know of a place I can hire Nikon lenses in SA. My 18-200 is in getting repaired and I would expect it wont be back in time for my trip to Phillip Island for MotoGP. I am interested in hiring a 70-200 and possibly a TC to go with it, anyone able to help with some contacts? Or am I just better off starting to ring around various camera shops?

Sorry to butt in,
Just out of curiosity, how much is usually charged to hire these types of lenses.

I don't know about anywhere else but L&P above have a 80-200 2.8 for $50 per day or $75 for a weekend. An excellent price I reckon to test out a lens or use something you normally wouldn't have access to.
