• so you don't know any dop's or production companies?
    i have a few photography mates and we loan each other kit all the time, a photographer/director i know borrows the production companies house 5DII (as do the other directors/dop's) all the time.

    maybe you need to make more friends in your industry or talk to the hire companies for a freebie.

    Thanks for the Input i had not thought of any of those options....

    My regular DoP has his 5D out on a job at the moment as an insert camera, the other DoP has also got his on a shoot out in Peru and my other couple of colleagues who are own them are either using theirs today on jobs or are working so i cannot get the kit from them. Believe you me i have been trying everyone i can. I also got 2 weeks rental of an EX3 for £300 from the rental house that we use for feature films which was already such a generous thing for them to do that i did not want to ask to borrow anymore kit from them. Unfortunately i do mostly feature films so therefore do not know so many people in production companies so did not really have that although if i wanted to shoot tonight on 35mm i could have gone to Panavision and got a Millenium and a set of Primos quite easily.
