Have you ever let a friend borrow a lens?

To people I trust all the time.

and the last glass of champagne has been drunk
All that you are left with are the memories and the images-David Cooke.

I'm sorry but I work to hard for my stuff, plus I just don't want to put into awkward position if someone does damage something of mine.

Out of all my close friends only one is as serious as i am about photography. I wouldn't hesitate to lend him any of my lenses. If something happens then so what. He is good for it anyway. No lost feelings. Works both ways.

Plus you always should have insurance on your gear!!!!!! Thats the first thing you should get after you buy your stuff. I never worry about damage or loss. If you work as hard as you do for your stuff then you should work as hard to get insurance for it. :cheer:

I would, I would let my friend borrow my whole camera if need be. But I guess I am just nice like that and trust my friend.
