Hi folks,

Im looking to rent a Sigma 10-20 for this weekend to shoot some landscape photos. Im located in Toronto. I cannot seem to find it in Vistek at any store. Anyone know any other store that might let me rent it for the weekend? Im gonna use it on my Nikon D90.

Also looking for another recommendation for an extreme wide angle (non fisheye) which I can rent if I cant find the Sigma.

Thanks in advance.

Lens Rentals Canada lists the Nikon 10-24 in their inventory -- I doubt you are going to find anyone that rents Sigma lenses nearby.

Are they reliable?

I've never rented from them. So I cannot comment.

Craig is one of the owners of Lens Rentals Canada and he also runs Canonrumors.com. I was up to see him a few weeks ago in Owen Sound and he seems like a really good guy. He had tons of super quality glass that he showed me.

Their model is longer term (minimum 4 day) rentals as they rely on shipping lens back and forth.

I would not hesitate to recommend them.

Thanks guys for your posts. I ended up renting a Nikon 10-24mm
AF-S Nikkor f/3.5-4.5G DX ED from Vistek. I was lucky to have one available this weekend.
