I'm travelling to LA over 10/23-> 10/25 and rather than bringing my camera I wondered if anyone still rented them?

I tried samys and one other shop but everyone seem to say they didn't rent anymore.

Anyone know better?

Thanks,

Bill Dwyer

You might state what camera you might be interested in? Lots of us here in LA(sorry I no longer shoot 8x10, just 4x5), but do live in LA :)

Peter, I did talk to sammys and they apparently just got rid of their rental 8x10.
Steve, I'll check PIX out.. Thanks,
Dan, I'm basically looking for any field/mono camera with a standard lens.

I figured in LA there would be a rental option, I'm from Cleveland, Ohio and we have a 4x5 rental available at our only good size camera outfitter. Honestly don't have a real important reason to shoot, I just thought it would be a fun thing to do whilst in LA. 4x5 would be OK too, perhaps I'll look for that option at Sammys.
