My camera had an accident Thursday evening, i messaged them at midnight with panic asking about hiring a camera for the weekend. They responded 1st thing Friday morning and assigned the awesome Ayanda to assist me. She literally worked overtime on my case. I was such a mess anxious and in full panic mode thinking about my already scheduled shoots for the weekend. But Ayanda was just soo awesome and made sure that i have a camera to shoot with on the weekend.Thank you so much Ayanda and Team. You really came through for me.

I love this place. Friendly staff and always willing to help. My place for hiring cameras. Gary is my main man. Call him any time and he bends for me. Always there for me. Its been 5 +/- years I have been hiring from him. Never disappoints.

Unfortunately, what was supposed to be a simple camera hire experience has turned into the most unpleasant, unacceptable and quite frankly disgraceful situation with this company.In short, I hired a camera through them. Upon completion of the hire period, and as agreed, a staff member (Ayanda) came to my property to collect the camera. Upon leaving, her car drove into my gate causing significant damage (Ive had to personally lay out over R2,000 for the repairs). Although they admitted fault and agreed to pay, several months have now passed, and Ive been lied to constantly, misled and ignored, without the damages being paid for.Tried contacting owners Gary and Peter who have made no effort at all to resolve the situation. The behaviour of yourselves is shameful and pathetic.

Amazing service and they have the latest gear available at reasonable pricing. I just hired the Canon R6 for a weekend and was very impressed with Canon approach to the mirrorless world.

Wow, what an amazing find! I was going on a Safari and wanted a better lens than what I had. Walked in, asked for a recommendation (was given accepted it and completed the transaction. Id be shocked if I was in the store 10 minutes.Very fast, very friendly service. Would totally, 100% use them again if Im ever back in South Africa.Thank you!

Delivery(OR Tambo Joburg on my arrival from Australia) and pick up(from my Joburg hotel) was seamless. From my research A Lens For Hire offers the best value for money of all the camera equipment hire companies in SA. Two reasons why I am hiring again from these guys for my next safari in August. I hired the Nikon 500mm F4 AFS ED VR so if you have always wanted to try one of these exotic lenses without the bank account breaking cost of purchase, this is the way to go. Highly recommended!
