Camera Rental in NYC
ARRI, RED, Sony, Blackmagic — cinema bodies, editorial workhorses, and compact rigs that survive a Manhattan location. We prep complete, tested camera packages for crews across the five boroughs, ready to roll the minute they hit the stage or the sidewalk. Tell us the job; the camera shows up built.
Past this point: the homework we did so Google would let you find us.
Cinema Camera Rental for New York Productions
New York moves fast and forgives nothing — call times that don’t slip, COIs that have to be right, and parking that turns a load-in into a negotiation. We prep cameras to that standard so the gear is the one thing nobody’s worried about, whether you’re at a Brooklyn stage or stealing a shot in Midtown.
Which camera for a New York shoot?
Match the body to the deliverable, not the trend. Scripted and streaming want an Alexa; editorial, branded, and run-and-gun lean on a Sony FX or a Komodo for speed and footprint. Tell us the cut and we’ll narrow it down.
Can you deliver across the boroughs?
Yes — Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and out to the rest of the metro, to stages and to location. Tell us the address and the load-in window and we’ll plan around the parking reality.
What is in the camera package?
Body, media and readers, batteries that go the distance, and the support and accessories the build needs — tested before it leaves so nothing surprises you on a tight NYC schedule.
What does it cost in NYC?
It depends on the body and the days; weekly rates run three days’ rate for the week, and the prep day is the cheapest on the sheet. Send dates and gear for a real number.
COI and insurance?
Yes — a certificate of insurance naming Lightbulb Rentals as additional insured, the same paperwork your locations already ask for. We turn COIs around fast.
