Has anyone been to this site to check out the rent-to-own HVX Packages this place is doing. The pics look pretty sweet.

I haven't done the math to see if their rates are competitive with other loans, but the trade-up policy seems nice, as does getting a no-brainer package assembled for you ... particularly if you're a newb like me.

I would use the list of what's included in the package I wanted and shop around to places like B&H or EVSonline.

Probably the last place you want to buy camera equipment from are rental houses (if you want to get the most for your money, that is.)
