Nikon Rental Advice

10 July 2022 - 08:21 PM

Hello everyone I am looking for a bit of advice. Bear with me it may be a bit convoluted.

 

I am looking to purchase a new Nikon camera body and I want to rent the camera to "test drive" before I pull the trigger to purchase the camera. I am thinking of buying a new Nikon D850 ( I shoot everything from wildlife, landscapes, motorsports, sports, and macro) and some new glass.

 

I ALSO have an upcoming trip to Maui and will be shooting primarily landscapes during my trip and I am looking to rent the new Nikon body before my trip (Borrow Lenses. lensrentals.com, etc.).

 

Best to go ahead and rent the D850 now to test drive while on my trip?

 

I currently have:

Nikon AF-S Nikkor 16-85 3.5-5.6G lense

Nikon AF-S Nikkor 70-300 4.5-5.6G lense

 

Any thoughts on those lenses and any recommendations on potential lenses to rent/test drive while I am renting the body?

 

Thanks in advance for the advice
