Renting Matte Boxes

Depending on your lighting, personal style, or whether or not you shoot outdoors, lens flare and glare can be a problem for videographers and photographers. One way to avoid possible issues with bothersome light effects is to use matte boxes. Matte boxes attach either directly to the front of your lens or are placed in front of your lens using a rig. They prevent glare and lens flare with the help of "barn doors", similar to the function of a lens hood. They also sometimes will hold special filters.

Video and Photo Equipment Rental Advantages

If you need to use something one time, you can keep money in your wallet by renting the item at an affordable rate rather that purchasing it at full price. In fact, in some cases, you may be able to rent the same item numerous times without even spending the amount of the purchase price. Renting allows you to see if you like a product before you buy it. It is much easier to spend a smaller amount on a rental, only to realize you don't like the item, than to buy it at a higher price and realize the same.
