You wouldn’t buy a car without taking it for a spin first, right? So why not take some of our camera equipment for a spin as well? Our camera rental system allows you to get a feel for camera gear before you make the big investment AND put money towards the purchase of that camera rental item. We’ve recently added the pictureline Rental Rewards system to the mix, which is explained in more detail below. In addition, here are six more reasons why renting from our camera rental department is easy, helpful, and structured with you in mind.
Pictureline Rental Rewards
We know that camera rental dollars can add up. So why not get a little something something back on that money you’re putting toward your camera rental. If you join the pictureline Rental Rewards program, you’ll receive 10% of that rental cost credited toward the purchase of that same item. For example, you rent a lens that costs $35 per day. You rent this lens for two days; therefore, your rental total for that item is $70. Well, guess what? You now have $7 toward the purchase of that lens. Pretty cool, huh? Sign up for pictureline Rental Rewards the next you're in store!
Half Off Camera Rental
Are you renting something on a weekday? You’re in luck! We offer 50% off on Monday-Thursday rentals. Pick something up on Monday, return it by Friday morning and you’ve got yourself a pretty sweet half off deal, my friend.
Early Open on Mondays and Free Sundays
Mondays are not the most favorite of days. We get it. However, we don’t want to contribute to any more Monday stress. The pictureline rental department is open an extra half hour earlier on Monday mornings to make the start of your week a little more enjoyable. Our camera rental staff will be there at 8:30 a.m. to help you check in your weekend camera rental. Oh, and since we’re not open on Sundays, we don’t charge you for that day. Sunday Funday indeed.
Early Pickups
When you’ve got a big shoot coming up, you want to have all your ducks in a row the night before—exactly why we offer early pickup. For an extra $10, you’re welcome to pick up rental equipment between 4:30 and 5:30 the day before the rental begins. However, it is possible that someone else may have the item already reserved, so just give us a call before you head to the store. Since we cannot guarantee early pickup availability, go ahead and rent the item for an additional day if you need the item in the morning before the store opens. Unfortunately, early pickups are not available on Saturday afternoon. If you need an item early on Monday morning, rent it for Saturday as well.
Try Before You Buy
Test drive that lens you’ve had your eye on. A 24-70mm is great for portraits or weddings, while a 70-200mm can capture those fast moving action shots at sporting events. Give the Canon 5D Mark III a go or pick up the Nikon D610 before you take the plunge. If you’re interested in a trying a product before you purchase, rest assured that with pictureline Rental Rewards you’ll get 10% of that camera rental cost put towards the purchase of that item.
Specialty Gear
Not every shoot is going to require the same type of camera equipment, but that doesn’t change the fact that you still need it. Maybe it’s a little too cold outside and you’re in need of a lighting kit for an indoor studio shoot? Or maybe you’ve got a commercial shoot coming up that requires a high-end still camera like the Hasselblad H5D? Whatever the assignment or shoot requires, we get that you’re not about to spend thousands of dollars for something you may not use again.
Knowledgeable Staff
Our camera rental staff is made up of photographers who have extensive experience shooting in commercial, sport, wedding, and portrait photography. We care about what you are shooting and are happy to help you choose the best equipment to fit your specific needs. We are committed to quickly and easily getting you the gear you need to succeed at your next shoot.
So what do you have to lose? Nothing. Sign up for the pictureline Rental Rewards next time you're in store. We’ll see you soon!
