Where to rent an FS700? at DVinfo.net

Tom Gresham · July 17th, 2012, 02:19 PM

I've never had to rent a camera, so I'm not familiar with rental outlets.

This would be to be shipped in. I'm in Louisiana.

Any suggestions about where to rent the FS700 for a few days?

Thanks.

We rent the FS700 at Omega - as well as have units for sale (3 FS700U's arriving tomorrow currently available).

Ask for Gabe for rentals or just ask for anyone in sales.

Allan, I sent you an email. I'll call this week. We have several shoots coming up.

The stuff we do could use slo-mo on every shoot.

Just sent the FS700 back to Lensrentals. We used it for two days (with two days of orientation before that). It really was a simple matter to get the slowmo I was looking for of firearms being shot. We also used it as the A camera for the shoot. So, all that was needed to get the slowmo was a couple of taps on one button, get the shot, then back to 24P for the rest of it.

Overall, I think this will be just right for what we do. Now I'm in buying mode. :)
