Renting a digital cam...

[Bubzeebub]

How much do you think it should cost?

If you have a "Big Box" store you can buy it on your credit card and use it for a weekend and return it. Even if they charge you a 5% restocking fee it may be cheaper than renting one.

I'm in the UK and I bought a digital 4 megapixel cam for £50 from a local store. I reckon that whatever a rental cost would be, it would be a waste when you can buy a cam at that price, IMHO.

If you cannot affor one...better to stop doing everything else :-P

well a decent high end digital camera will cost around $5000, so i assume you're talking about that kind of thing, rather than a cheap computer store version.

as a wild guess i think you'd be paying at least a couple of hundred for a day.
(i think around 5% of the value a day)

you'll possibly want to rent a tripod and will have to pay insurance.

I was assuming that this may have been a continuation of Bubzeebub's "Getting sharp photos on a website" post, earlier in this forum (near this one at present), so if it's just a conventional digital camera you're after? Then they aren't expensive at all. I have heard of some SLR digital cameras weighing at the prices Topr8 suggested, but if you could afford that you wouldn't be here... And as for quality? 4 or 5 megapixels is way more than you'd ever need for web graphics.
