Wedding Photography Gear: Rent Premium Equipment for Perfect Shots
A full wedding camera kit is a specialist rental, not ours. RentSmart rents a GoPro and a drone from ₹249/day for the weekend.
By RentSmart Editorial Team
Catalogue note: RentSmart currently rents GoPro and a camera drone. We do not rent cinema camera bodies, lenses, or lighting kits. Figures below are a market comparison.
RentSmart does not rent Canon or Sony cinema bodies, lenses, or lighting kits. The camera-body day rates below are market comparisons, not prices we charge. What we do rent for a wedding weekend is a GoPro and a camera drone, each from ₹249/day, plus ₹249 delivery and pickup.
Wedding photography is a one-time chance to capture the day, and a full professional kit can cost over ₹5 lakhs to buy. Specialist camera rental houses cover that gap. This page is not a booking form for those kits.
A typical market kit elsewhere (not RentSmart):
• Canon R5 or Sony A7R V: ₹1,200/day
• 24-70mm f/2.8 lens: ₹800/day
• 70-200mm f/2.8 lens: ₹900/day
• 50mm f/1.2 lens: ₹600/day
• Flash and lighting setup: ₹1,000/day
• Backup camera body: ₹800/day
• Memory cards and batteries: ₹300/day
Total daily rental: ₹5,600 vs ₹5,00,000+ purchase
Rental Advantages for Weddings:
1. Latest technology: Always shoot with newest camera bodies
2. Backup security: Multiple cameras included in packages
3. Insurance coverage: Worry-free shooting experience
4. No maintenance: Focus on photography, not gear upkeep
5. Variety: Different lenses for different ceremony moments
Popular Wedding Packages:
• Single day wedding: ₹8,000 (complete kit)
• 3-day wedding: ₹20,000 (premium package)
• Destination wedding (7 days): ₹35,000
Pro Tips:

Many successful wedding photographers start their careers by renting equipment, gradually purchasing pieces as their business grows.
