Film camera rental shop

[Aida Alzanki]

Hello everyone I will be visiting London in April 2024 and I was wondering if there's a place where I can rent film camera to practice shooting on film rather than digital as I wish to explore film although I haven't practice it before nor I live in place where film camera are still available. I also would love to learn how to operate on film camera and get more knowledge on the processing aspect but no luck in finding any workshops in London for this matter. If anyone could help in this regard will be very appreciated. 

Thanks in advance

Do you want to rent a 16mm or 35mm camera?

 

ARRI London

The Unit Bag

Cameraworks

MCX Films

Emmyland

etc

You might want to call them first, as they might not rent their gear to visitors, or to people with no film camera experience.

You'll also need insurance for the equipment.

Sometimes rental companies will allow you to practise on the kit on their premises.
