I was recently contacted by LensRentals.com.
Never
heard of them? If you are a budding, amateur, or even a professional
photographer or a blogger, this may be something worth checking into! I
know I love the idea of being able to rent photography equipment, especially when traveling to Disney where there are so many variables in photography and different equipment and lenses are needed to take stellar pictures.
For example, do you have a prime lenses for the dark rides? Do you have telephoto lens? Do you have a fisheye? What about firework shots? So many variables. So much equipment.
Now, with LensRentals' Keeper program, you will have the option of keeping the equipment you
love!

LensRentals Makes Photo and Video Equipment Purchases More Affordable
with “Try Before You Buy” Keeper
Program
Consumers Earn Credit for up to 7
Days of Equipment Rental;
Price of Rented Item Based on its Age
LensRentals,
the leading photography, video, and lighting equipment rental company, today
announced the official launch of its “try before you buy” Keeper Program, providing
consumers the assurance of purchasing equipment that they know meets their
needs at a reduced price.
The Keeper Program allows customers to rent equipment and
apply up to seven days of rental fees towards the purchase of the equipment. In
addition the retail price of the item is adjusted according to the age of the
equipment further reducing a potentially expensive investment for photo and
video enthusiasts.
With more than 1,400
products now eligible to be purchased through the Keeper program, approximately
90% of LensRentals range of equipment, it offers something for every level of
enthusiast. Only hard-to-source
equipment may not be available for purchase post rental. LensRentals scores the highest level of
equipment inspection and cleaning in the rental industry, maintaining an
equipment failure rate of less than 1%. All LensRentals products are bought
new, sold after 2 years of rental use, and extensively tested before and after
each rental.
To try the program, consumers can visit the LensRentals
website, browse through the huge range of equipment for rental to discover
items with a green “Yep. It’s a Keeper!” badge that identify products eligible
for the Keeper Program. Clicking on the
green badge presents consumers with a range of prices and how the discounts are
applied. Existing LensRentals customers can simply charge the cost to the
original credit card placed on file at the time of rental.
“Cameras and video
equipment can be very expensive. We know
that many consumers would prefer to try and test certain items before deciding
to make that investment,” said LensRentals, Founder and CEO, Roger Cicala. “We’re thrilled to officially launch the
Keeper Program and offer everyone the opportunity to keep items they know and love.”
The Keeper program
was created to offer more flexible terms for photo and video enthusiasts
looking to make an investment in equipment.
Following an extended trial period in late 2014, the Keeper
Program has already proven successful saving consumers money from hundreds of purchases to date.
