Canon lens rental in South Africa?

MadMailMan · Mar 2, 2010

Anybody know where I can hire a Canon 70-200 f/2,8 IS and a 1,4 extender in South Africa? I'll be in Jhb for 10 days and I would like to hire these items for the trip. Any ideas? I would hire them and bring them with but my normal supplier has rented both of theirs out for that time.

Thanks!!

First result on Google:

Kodak Express
Retail Crossing
Westrand JHB

Looks to be R280 p/d for the lens and R50 p/d for the extender, excluding insurance. Problem is they ask for proof of residence, so not sure what you're going to do about that...

Pity they dont ship - their prices look pretty decent.

I normally pickup lenses locally, where do u want to ship it to? Speak to Johan and ask him if he'll do it?

PE would be nice - we're not exactly spoilt for choices here.
