Where to rent Pentax lenses

[MAJPLO]

Any recommendations on places to rent lenses, especially for a Pentax mount? I've looked at borrowlenses and they don't have much of a selection for my camera.

Lensrentals.com has pentax lenses. What lens are you looking for?

I just looked and cameralensrentals.com has more lenses and cheaper prices I think.

Not looking for anything in particular. I'd just like to try out a few different things before I try to decide on what I want to buy. I'm too afraid to spend much on something and find out that it isn't really right for me. The selection on both the sites you suggested seems much better than where I've looked before. Thank you!

I can say the 43 and 15 Limiteds are definitely worth the price.

Ooo thank you. The 43 is one of the ones I'm really excited about trying.

So I rented this lens and it arrived today. When I put my camera on auto it takes a great shot. When I put it on anything else the color is all off (yellow/orange) even if I use the same settings that auto chose. What's up and what can I do about it?

Which lens is it? The 43? I don't have any problems like that and I usually use auto WB unless I'm shooting with a flash or certain indoor lighting. I think the 43 and DA15 are the best color rendering lenses I have shot with. I'm using a K-5IIs. I actually prefer the colors of the Pentax over the Nikon D600 and Sony Nex 7/6 that I shot before. I find auto WB to be great most of the time. The Sony was the worst to me.

What body are you using? When you adjust WB, does it give you your last shot to see the WB change?

It's the 43mm on the K30. I was thinking about the WB this morning and thinking that would help.

I would definitely check and make sure your WB is set to auto because that lens on the K30 should shine especially at f2 and beyond. Its razor sharp after that across the frame.

For rentals, I use cameralensrental dot com. Sorry, auto correct keeps "fixing" the address.
