Renting a leica lens in London

[dreamspy1]

I will be traveling to london this summer, and was wondering if there is any

camera rental there? I'm looking for someone who could rent me a Noctilux over

a weekend.

Try http://www.theclassiccamera.com/ they are the only people in central London that may rent out Leica equipment.

Many years ago, I rented a 75mm Summilux from Leeds Cameras in the Brunswick Centre,

WC1. I think they have morphed into the Flash Centre and they are still in the Brunswick.

 

Also, you could try Calumet in Drummond Street, NW1.

 

To be honest, I don't think it's going to very easy to rent a Noctilux, in London, these days.

Good luck.
