Amazing company! The airline lost my bag with all my gear, and I had an interview the next day. I’m so glad they had everything I needed — I headed to their office and picked up stands, a tripod, and lights. Incredible customer service!!!

Amazing to work with. When my client changed plans last minute, these guys rolled with the punches and even sourced equipment they didn't have available. I'd go to them again in a heartbeat.

The team at Camera Rentals NYC made the process of securing a few lenses for an engagement shoot so seamless. Sam was a great help last minute and provided great service in a timely manner! I’m really happy with my experience and will definitely be renting from them again. 10/10

Rented a camera body twice from Camera Rentals NYC and had a great experience both times. Reliable gear, good communication, reasonable rates, easy local pick up and drop off. Would rent from them again!

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the rental process work with you?

We run our entire rentals setup digitally up until you come to grab the gear in person. We both offer rental directly on our site, as well as through a platform called ShareGrid (check our inventory there); get a discount on your first rental with this link on us.

This is our rental interface on SG. Double-check you’re renting from us – Camera Rentals NYC powered by Prodigium Pictures.

Instead of filling out physical paperwork or signing numerous PDFs via multiple emails, it’s all done on a mobile-friendly platform. You’ll use a digital shopping cart to select the gear.

Important Instructions:

  1. Make sure to have your ID ready to get your identity verified if you don’t have an account yet.
  2. You can upload insurance onto the platform; if you don’t have one, you can get insured through ShareGrid.
  3. Their verification team is online only during the work week, so make sure to get verified during business hours.
  4. Oh, and if you’re in a rush – just use the chat button on the right bottom of the website, that’ll let them know you need expedited attention.

PS: We’re not affiliated with ShareGrid, we just use them as our secondary rental platform.

What kind of equipment can I rent from you?

We carry just about everything you’d need in the camera department – and at the same time, are proud to say that all our gear is battle-tested on our own productions. That means, all the kits are accessorized in an intelligent, real-world way.

We carry everything from a RED Komodo package to Atlas Orion Anamorphic lenses, BMPCC4K and BMPCC6K camera body to Sigma cine zooms, wireless video & follow focus, Director’s Monitor, camera rigs, MoVI Pro Gimbals, tripods, lighting for high-end documentaries, corporate interviews and a lot more.

Are there discounts for weekends or weekly rentals?

You’re in luck – we do offer time-based discounts!

  1. Weekends (Saturday+Sunday) are billed as 1 rental day
  2. Weekly rentals are billed as 4 days.

More about those discounts on our pricing policy page. Next to that, if you’re a returning renter, we often have special offers with up to 20% off your second rental with us. Just inquire about it when you make the rental request!

What are the insurance requirements?

Every rental needs to either be insured or have a security deposit attached to it. If you already have insurance, you just send us a COI; if you don’t have insurance yet we offer 3 options:

    1. You can bind a new equipment rental insurance policy. For your convenience, we compiled a list of relevant insurance vendors.
    2. For smaller orders, we can hold a security deposit for you
    3. You can rent through ShareGrid and use their order-based insurance.

    More about all of this on our insurance page!
