Studio 8 Hire Equipment
As you would expect with any hire studio, Studio 8 has all of the equipment you will ever need for the perfect shooting environment. With our standard hire, all of the lighting heads, modifiers and necessary equipment listed below is included in the hourly hire rate and should ensure you have everything you need for your shoot.
Other equipment such as cameras and lenses are also available to hire should you need them at extra cost and subject to availability, please see the items below for details and price.
We have a full 2.7 meter colorama backdrop system in our first floor studio that is also included in the basic hire costs.

Whilst the cost of the colorama backdrops are included, any paper that is damaged will be charged at £7.50 per meter.
