Premium Member George Ebersole Posted March 7, 2010 Premium Member Share Posted March 7, 2010 I know this is a stupid green-horn question, but where do you rent an SI camera package? I went to what I thought was their website, but they only had sample files, specs and their home office address listed there. Do you have to know somebody to get your hands on one of these babies?

Premium Member John Sprung Posted March 7, 2010 Premium Member Share Posted March 7, 2010 Try Abel. http://www.abelcine.com/store/Silicon-Imag...I-2K-HD-Camera/ -- J.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member George Ebersole Posted March 7, 2010 Author Premium Member Share Posted March 7, 2010 Wow, I am out of the loop. Prices have gone way up. Thanks for the link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Gus Sacks Posted March 7, 2010 Premium Member Share Posted March 7, 2010 Yeah... I saw able to get Abel down to a more reasonable price for just a two week feature, but I don't think the demand for the camera was high at that moment.

Justin Lovell Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 I rent mine out of Toronto, willing to travel. Package starts at $375/day and goes up depending on what is required. (not $1200 without lenses like Abel). Just got in the full Linos lens set. 12, 16, 25, 50. 1.6/1.8. very sharp, compact lenses. Also a 16-100 1.9 zoom. and 5.9 angenieux, 10mm switar. PL and Nikon lens mounts available. Records to a solid state touchscreen laptop which can be slung in a backpack for ultimate portability. some posts in my blog.. www.framediscreet.blogspot.com love the camera :D Sure as hell beats the Red Workflow (on set and off).

Premium Member George Ebersole Posted May 11, 2010 Author Premium Member Share Posted May 11, 2010 Yeah, $1200/day seemed a bit steep. Still, with all the financial fires I've been putting out these last couple of years, it'll be a while before I can afford anyone's camera package.
