About this episode

The episode discusses the costs associated with camera equipment for creators and suggests renting as a cost-effective solution.

Camera equipment decisions get expensive fast, especially for filmmakers and photographers weighing a new camera body versus a smarter smartphone setup. Renting from a local rental house for a two to three day shoot keeps costs down, and next year it often gets access to newer gear for the same rental price. Buying makes more sense when the gear is used constantly (like microphones for daily podcasts!) Music is by Marcus Thorne Bagala. Find us everywhere at https://dailytipspodcast.com.
