    San Francisco Area Equipment Rental

    Posted by Bill Celnick on June 15, 2011 at 12:57 pm

    I’m a NY based event videographer scheduled to shoot a conference in San Francisco July 8-10.

    I’m considering lightening my load by renting tripods and a back-up camera just in case something of mine gets lost / damaged in transit.
    I’d be looking for something like a Panasonic HMC-150 or similar AVCHD camera, but could accept an HDV tape based camera.

    Would any Bay area videographers be able to suggest any equipment rental companies that they have done business with? I’ll be working in the Union Square area.

    Thank you.

    Check Rental Express. https://www.rentvideo.com

    I have used them to rent various cameras and decks over the years and know them well. They’ll take good care of you and have a pretty wide/diverse selection.

    They just moved their offices/warehouse this past weekend, so make sure you get their new address if you go with them.

    Best,
