Camera and Video Gear Rentals

When you're shooting film for any kind of production, you want the best quality, professional cameras. You can edit any video shot as much as you want, but in the end, if you didn't have a good camera, the quality of your final product will suffer. On the other hand, you're more than likely under a budget and going out and buying expensive equipment probably isn't an option. That's why Camera and Video Gear Rentals make a lot of sense.

With camera and video gear rentals, you can get the latest, up-to-date equipment in the industry without having to spend a fortune. You'll only pay for the time you use the equipment instead of purchasing it outright.

Here is a look at some of the equipment available for rent.

Panasonic HVX200
The Panasonic HVX200 is one fo the most popular small format HD cameras because it is capable of recording in several HD and SD modes, and multiple frame rates. With its ability to record up to 60 frames per second, it's great for slow motion recording. It's flexible enough to cover all of your basic needs and will serve any purpose. The quality of its HD video is magnificent and it supports state p2 media and even tape. It also comes with a wide-angle lens.


Sony HVR-Z1U

The Sony HVR-Z1U is often used for documentaries and reality TV due to its portability. It has the ability to shoot in NTSC 60i or PAL 50i and has XLR professional audio inputs. It also has the ability to shoot in HDV 1080i and comes with advanced HD imaging sensors.


Letus35 HD Lens Adapter

You can choose either the Letus35 Mini or the Letus35 Extreme. Both feature 1/2 of light lost, as well as a new prism technology that flips images upright, so you don't have to turn the camera. The Letus35 Mini is designed for smaller cameras such as the Canon HV20 and the Sony HC seris, while the Letus Extreme is great for lenses larger than 43 mm and is great for HD recording.

Camera Tripod & Other Supports Tripods and other types of camera support are necessary for anyone who is looking to capture quality video and photography. With a handheld camera, video can be shaky or choppy, but with the right tripod, your video will be crisp and smooth. A good quality tripod won't topple over with your camera attached. Other camera supports include Zipline Dollies, Monopods, CamTrams, Jib Arms, and Skateboard Dollies.

At Rentacomputer.com, we offer all this and more. We offer video monitoring so you can see what you're recording, as well as other video equipment such as P2 Media Storage, video cables, camera battery belts, firewire converters, video mixers, projector screens, projectors, batteries, hard disc recorders, dvd recorders, and more. If you need video or camera gear and don't want to pay a fortune to buy it, consider a rental. Call us at 800-736-8772 or visit Rentacomputer.com and let us make it happen!

Tech Travel Agents Have the Answers to Your Questions

One of our Tech Travel Agents recently received an email from a potential customer in North Carolina, who was looking for some answers to some questions about renting a projector:

Hi,

We are having a conference of 1,000 people and would like to have two projector screens on either side of the stage. We have a prosumer camera and the projection screens, but would need to rent projectors. Is it possible to use one projector and split the image onto the two screens? Or can we use one video camera and split that picture into two projectors? And what cables would we need?

Thanks!

Kentucky Computer Rentals

The Bluegrass state was the fifteenth state to join the Union and is the 26th largest in terms of population. Kentucky earned its nickname from the bluegrass that grows in the pastures throughout the state, making it an ideal breeding ground for livestock and its famed thoroughbred racing horses. It is home to number of diverse environments and natural resources, the highest number of per capita deer and turkey in the United States, the largest free-ranging elk east of Montana, and the country's most productive oilfield. But business in Kentucky is not all about natural resources; the state is known for horse racing, bourbon, bluegrass music, automobile manufacturing, tobacco, and college basketball.

Kentucky's gross state product of about $146 billion in 2006 comes from a vast number of businesses, including agriculture, transportation equipment, chemical products, electric equipment, machinery, food processing, tobacco products, coal and tourism. As a matter of fact, the state leads the United States in many areas: the Eastern Kentucky Coal Fields are top in the nation and the state is number four in automobile and truck assembly. It ranks fifth in number of farms in the country, as well as fifth in goat farming, eighth in beef cattle product, and fourteenth in corn production.

With so much production taking place in the state, it's no wonder it's a popular spot for computer rentals. So many companies are sending business travelers to Kentucky to check-in on production of important materials and traveling businessmen and women are often the top renters of computers. Traveling with heavy equipment can be a burden, but having your equipment meet you at your destination can solve many of your problems. Maybe you need a projector to make a big presentation or a few computers to help train new employees. At Rentacomputer.com, we can help with these needs and more. We have reliable vendors in Kentucky who will deliver whatever type of equipment you need straight to your destination. A member of our Tech Army will deliver it, install it, and maintain it for the duration of your rental agreement and will do it all to your satisfaction.

If you are in Kentucky or anywhere in the United States, call 1-800-736-8772 today or visit our website, RentAComputer.com, to get receive an express quote on technology and computer rentals in Kentucky.

In addition, several major companies' headquarters are located in the state, including Sprint Nextel, Embarq, YRC Corp, Garmain, Payless Shoes, and Koch Industries.

Projector Rental Customer Testimonial

Traveling for business in this day and age isn't easy. Crazy airline rules limit what I can carry onto a plane. I work for a major retail company and I'm always traveling around the country, checking in on our stores and making presentations to individual store and regional management teams. I generally travel with my personal laptop, on top of my clothes and other items I'll need for those few days or weeks I'll be away from home, and that alone has me with my hands full at every security checkpoint.

When I first started traveling to these meetings, I made the mistake of assuming the stores and offices I was traveling to would have the proper equipment on hand. I needed a projector for my Microsoft Powerpoint presentations and you can imagine my embarrassment when I found they didn't. It seemed so unprofessional to ask for equipment when I am supposed to be a leader in the company and I felt totally unprepared. That was a really bad week.

I started looking into buying a projector but I just couldn't afford it. Not only that, but I couldn't imagine having to carry it around the airport with me, in addition to my other items. I was just about to give up when a friend suggested I visit the website Rentacomputer.com. I did and was surprised to see a company that offers not only Projector Rentals but computer rentals (both desktop and laptop), plasma TV rentals, and other technology.

I knew I'd be traveling to Miami the next week, so I put in a call to one of their Tech Travel Agents. I gave her a little bit of info and she gave me a reasonable quote for a projector rental and promised to have it at our Miami office on the morning of my presentation. Not only was it ready and waiting for me, but I didn't even have to set it up. And when the meeting was over, someone came and picked it up; I didn't have to lift a finger. From now on, anytime I travel, I depend on Rentacomputer.com to help with my technology rental needs.

- Dana Rizzoli, Assistant Vice President of Major U.S. Retail Company

Louisiana Computer Rentals

In 2005, Louisiana's gross state product was $168 billion, the 24th in the nation. While it produces a number of agricultural products including cotton, soybeans, cattle, sugarcane, poultry, eggs, rice, dairy products, and it is the world's biggest producer of crawfish, the "Pelican State" also has a strong industry presence, producing chemical products, petroleum, coal products, food processing, transportation equipment, and paper products. The Port of South Louisiana is the largest volume shipping port in our hemisphere, as well as the fourth largest in the world and it is also the largest bulk cargo port in the world.

The famous city of New Orleans attracts visitors from all over the world, with tourism being another important part of the state's economy. Also, both New Orleans and Shreveport are home to a thriving film industry, due to state financial incentives and aggressive promotion. Louisiana is known for its unique culture and a number of events, including the World Cultural Economics Forum, are held there each year. For this reason, the state sees a large number visitors each year.

With such a wide variety of business taking place in the unique state, it's no wonder people are traveling for business or even moving to set up new businesses.

Temporary Office Equipment Rentals

When the gubernatorial candidate I was working for decided he needed to open another office in another part of the state, he put me in charge. I was responsible for seeing to it that the office space was rented for the duration of the campaign, the office was fully staffed, and that the office was set up with the appropriate equipment. This was seven months before the election and it seemed like a waste of campaign funds to purchase new copiers, printers, computers, etc.. After all, my candidate was campaigning on responsible spending; what would his constituents say if he was wasting thousands of dollars on equipment that he would only use for seven months?

That's when I decided to look into rental equipment. I typed "temporary office equipment rentals" into Google, saw Rentacomputer.com at the top and decided to give them a try. I was immediately in touch with a Tech Travel Agent and she let me know how much it would cost for me to rent enough equipment for our small office of fifteen staffers. The quote seemed too good to be true. I hesitantly gave her our location. We were in a somewhat remote location in the Midwest and I just knew she was going to tell me they only deliver to big cities. Wrong! Not only were they able to get the equipment to our location (they deliver all over the United States), but they were able to do it in a timely manner.

Technicians set up everything from our copy machine to our computer network and I made it happen through one point of contact. It was an amazing experience and I will keep this in mind for any future temporary offices I have to set up. For what it's worth, my candidate won and is proudly serving the people of our state. Once the campaign was over, Rentacomputer.com's people picked up the equipment, making our jobs much easier and giving us more time to celebrate.

- Customer Testimonial from Gus Austin, office manager for 2008 state gubernatorial candidate

Who Needs a Computer Rental?

The average person may see the term "computer rental" and think to themselves, why would anyone want to rent a computer? Isn't it easier to just purchase a computer? The truth is, computer rentals may not make a lot of sense or even be right for everybody, but for some people and various organizations, they're perfect. They can save time, money, as well being convenient.

Entrepreneurs

Anyone who has ever started a new business or thought about starting a new business realizes the cost of doing so can be very high. One of the biggest headaches can be the cost of technology needed for that new business. The right computer to fit your needs can be very expensive and renting is a perfect solution for cutting your start-up costs. For a much lower price, a new business-owner can have the most modern, up-to-date computers in their store or office, for as long or as little as needed. Eventually, when they start seeing an income, then a few purchases can be made.

Speakers and Presenters

If you find yourself making a presentation at numerous conferences, meetings and seminars, this probably means you travel a lot. Traveling with a bunch of heavy technology can be cumbersome, particularly with today's new travel regulations. You run the risk of losing the equipment, damaging it, or even having it confiscated by security. A computer rental is the perfect solution. You can have your computer awaiting your arrival at any conference in any city, in any venue. All you need to do is plug in your disk or connect remotely to your home or office computer and you've got everything you need for a successful presentation.

Trade Shoe Exhibitors

Again, traveling with expensive, heavy equipment isn't an ideal situation due to the number of problems you may encounter or just the overall burden of it all. If you exhibit at trade shows, you probably find yourself traveling all over the country and you've probably figured out that the flashiest booth gets the most attention. Computer rentals can help. Whether you're looking to set up a virtual presentation on a sleek, wide-screen monitor, or you want to set-up computers for potential customers to use to explore your website, a rental can be ready and waiting for you when you arrive at your venue.

Transitioning Individuals

Maybe you're getting ready to move and your equipment is all packed up, but you still have some work to do. Maybe you've never owned a computer but have a sudden need for one and can't afford to go out and spend $1,000. Maybe your current computer no longer works or is obsolete and you can't afford to get another one yet. These are all reasons individuals may want to consider a computer rental. Whatever your temporary need, a computer rental is a cheap, convenient alternative to purchasing a new computer. And with a rental, you can do anything you would on a computer you owned: check email, get online, work on documents, etc. And you can rent a computer for as little or as long as you need, until you are in a more stable situation and can get your old computer out of storage or buy a new one.
