Flash rental - 08-06-2007, 08:12 PM


Howdy HCE!

I'm shooting a family portrait for a friend of mine this Sunday morning outdoors, and I don't have any power inverters for my studio gear.

Instead, I'm Looking at renting a 580ex to go along with my 430ex which I can then put on a stand and umbrella for outdoors.

What would it cost to rent a 580ex for the weekend?

Thanks,

Matt

Equipment Rental - 08-06-2007, 09:02 PM


Hi Matt,

Sorry, but HCE doesn't rent equipment. There are a couple of places in town that do rentals:

- Light Tec http://www.lighttec.com
- Houston Photo Imaging http://www.houstonphotoimaging.com

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need additional information.

Best regards,

Matt,

I forgot to mention, you may want to check both places for an invertor. There's a good chance Light Tec may have one.

I plan to buy a Vagabond II for my AB's soon...I might just bite the bullet and do it this week. The price for renting one isn't proportionate to buying one new.
