Used cameras, checked on the bench and signed for.
We sell and hire used film and digital cameras from our shop in Lincoln. Our technician checks every camera before it goes out, and every sale, hire and return is a signed agreement you can open anywhere.
Open Tuesday to Saturday, 10:00–17:30, in Lincoln.

How a hire works
Four steps on one agreement, each signed by whoever took it.
You book
Pick your dates online and request the camera, no account needed, or come to the counter and we'll start the hire there. The agreement sets the dates, the day rate and the deposit.
We check it
Our technician signs a bench check of shutter, seals, lens and meter before the camera leaves the shop.
You shoot
Need it longer? An extension is a new signed step on the same agreement, never a changed one.
You bring it back
We sign the return, check it on the bench again and give you back your deposit.

Consign a camera with us
Leave a camera you no longer use and we'll sell or hire it out for you on a signed consignment, paying you your share. Consignment agreements aren't live on this demo yet. Until they are, ask at the counter.
