Well I cant give you any advice on who to rent from, but just wanted to say its a very good way of finding out what suits and what doesnt, believe its costly though, so research this thoroughly :goodpost:

If there's a local camera store near Tampa, check with them.

I saw someone mention www.itcinema.com in your area. Don't know anything about them.

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.
