Photographers on a budget – don’t buy lenses, borrow them instead!

Friday, July 24th, 2009

So, you are a photographer and have that dream job coming up.  You really need to use a Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L USM lens, but just can’t afford it right now.  What if you could borrow it for anywhere from 3 days to 4 weeks starting at just $47 – I am sure your fee will cover that.  Now think of the back-end sale of high quality pictures you will be able to sell as well!

Canons longest telephoto lens, and an excellent choice for any long-distance application, especially outdoor sports, wildlife, news photojournalism, and so on.

What if you are a nature photographer and want to use that $11,000 Canon EF 800mm f/5.6L IS USM lens for your next job?  Want to borrow it for a small fraction of the cost?  Wouldn’t the end product be worth it?

Look no further than BorrowLenses.com to meet your needs!  The company is based in California and has a wide variety of lenses, flashes, tripods, light meters, lens filters, and yes – even cameras that you can borrow.  They will ship the equipment to you, offer you optional insurance, and when you are done, you ship it right back to them in the same package that came to you.

They carry an extensive line of lenses and other photography accessories and lighting for both Canon and Nikon.  Finally, if you are a photographer that has a blog like this one, a web page, or you just like helping other photographers with resources like this, they have an affiliate program which allows you to earn money by referring customers to their site.  For information on the affiliate program, click here to join.
