Specific Rental in Plano/Richardson

[beavo451]

Hi all, I know of Lighttec, Dallas Camera, and Arlington Camera as reputable rental places. Out of all of these, according to their websites, Arlington Camera is the only one with a Nikon 17-55 f2.8 lens available for rent. I want to rent this lens for a wedding, but Arlington is a little far and the wedding is in Sherman, so double whammy on gas. Is there another place closer to where I live that has this lens available for rent or borrow?

Camera Stop http://www.camera-stop.com/ on Preston and Parker rents lenses, although I'm not sure they have the lens you are looking for. You could also try Competitive Camera. http://www.competitivecameras.com/

Competitive only has the 17-35/2.8 and not the 17-55 for rental.

I didn't know that Competitive Camera did rentals. What else do they have? I may just settle for a 28-70 f2.8. Camera Stop in Plano does not have any mid-range Nikon zoom lenses available for rent. They only have a Canon 17-40L and the rest are Canon and Nikon Telephotos.

Call Competitive for availability.
