I'm in a bind. My Nikon D70 is broke, and don't have enough time to send to extended warranty company. I have local repair shop looking at it right now. Problem is I am going on my honeymoon to Las Vegas on Oct 9th, and I need a digital SLR to take with me. They may not be able to turn it around that quick. I think I found a company in Chicago that rents and ships, but trying to find that url again. Thought I would post here. Anyone have a camera they are willing to rent to me for a week? Anyone know of an online rental shop?

Much appreciated.

www.LensProToGo.com is one. There is another but I can't recall it right now. Reputable, from what I hear.

I am going to second that. The best thing about them is they do not require a security deposit. The cost of the rental is it, it includes shipping.

Thank you! I did use Lensprotogo.com and they were very helpful, and also the cheapest I found for camera body. I rented the Canon 40D for something like $130 for 1 week (shipping both ways included). He even allowed me an extra day or two to return from my trip so I didn't have to return the rental from my hotel. The equipment was also in an exta secure case for no problems shipping. I highly recommend this company.
