Borrow Lenses for Cakes (UK)

[bbtom10]

All,

Thanks for looking - I am photographer for my sister's wedding in Cyprus in third week of September and I was looking to hire some pro-spec equipment. When I saw some of the prices I thought I might first check here if anyone had anything I might borrow from 16th Sept to 29th Sept - it will be fully insured and cared for by me but I appreciate that this may not be something anyone is willing to do. I will cover the cost of any postage/courier and I am also willing to pay for borrowing the items, or borrow them in exchange for a free cake from our cake business (Home)! I will provide a contract of hire and provide you with some form of deposit if required as well.

Ideally you will be in the Midlands in UK and therefore I could collect the items personally, whilst also giving you some assurances over my intentions.

I shoot Nikon so it would need to be compatible equipment (and Nikon D5000 which doesn't have an internal focus motor).

My wish list is:

mid-range tele zoom (17-55 f2.8 or 24-70 f2.8)
longer range (70-200 f2.8)
prime (50mm / 35mm / 85mm f1.8)

To work with my D5000 they would either need to be Nikkor AF-S or Sigma HSM (Tamron don't have an acronym for their internal focus motor lenses).

I would also like to borrow a second body, anything from a D40 to a D3(!) considered.

Finally, while I'm asking, an SB-600 - SB-900 flash would also be great.

I do not expect that anyone will be willing to do this, but if you don't ask, you don't get!

Thanks
Tom
