Capture Every Moment Perfectly – LensHire India’s Professional Camera & Accessory Rentals

LensHire India was founded in 2021 by cinematographer Rahul Mehra and photography enthusiast Anika Kapoor, who saw a gap in affordable, reliable access to high-end imaging equipment for India’s creative community. Operating from our headquarters in Bengaluru’s tech hub, they assembled a team of rental specialists, camera engineers, and logistics experts committed to delivering seamless service nationwide. Our mission is to democratize access to the latest visual storytelling technology—from Sony’s full-frame mirrorless systems and Canon RF lenses to DJI gimbals and ARRI lighting rigs—so that artists can focus on creativity, not capital expenditure.
At LensHire, every client begins with a personalized consultation: we assess your project’s needs—camera format, lens coverage, lighting scenarios, and production timelines—and propose an optimal kit. Our online platform features detailed specifications, real-world sample footage, and user reviews, helping you choose with confidence. We maintain meticulous maintenance logs and conduct full performance tests—sensor calibrations, lens sharpness charts, motor torque checks—before every dispatch. Whether you’re in Delhi, Chennai, Hyderabad, or a remote Northern region, our integrated delivery network ensures your gear arrives on schedule and in pristine condition.
Beyond rentals, LensHire offers on-demand technical support: live setup assistance via video call, emergency gear swaps on set, and drop-off repair services at partner service centers in each major city. In 2022, we launched LensLab, our in-house workshop where clients can rent by-the-hour studio space for test shoots, calibrate monitor-grade displays, and attend hands-on masterclasses—covering topics like anamorphic workflows, low-light techniques, and advanced post-production color grading.
Over the past two years, LensHire India has supported over 500 productions—independent films, corporate videos, wedding shoots, and advertising campaigns—garnering a 4.9/5 satisfaction rating for gear quality and customer service. Our commitment to building long-term partnerships led us to introduce subscription rental plans for freelancers, offering discounted monthly packages and priority access to new releases. As we expand inventory and open new hubs in Kolkata and Jaipur in 2025, our foundational promise remains unchanged: to empower India’s storytellers with the very best tools, expert guidance, and unwavering support every step of the way.
