Rental Rate for RED Ram?

[Matthew Rogers]

Hey, I was just wondering what people are charging for rentals on the RED Ram? I just want to be able to tell my clients how much it will be if they need something bigger than CF cards.

I look at their shoes and base my rental rates on that!

aw, this would not work in Italy, here everyone besides me has good shoes !:biggrin:

You need to ROI faster as the drive prices will drop. But they will last.

I'm thinking ... $250 per day. Curious what others are asking ...?

Hah. If you saw my shoes, you would probably offer me one hell of a discount!

Anyway...
I was quoted $250/day for a prototype unit a couple weeks ago, but the timing worked out to get our own from RED. RED RAM is the only thing I'm renting separate from the camera and I'm doing $250/day or $600/week, standard 3-day week. More than that and I think people would just buy their own. I don't think the back-order on them is that bad. FedEx just tried to deliver me another one this morning, but I missed it. Guess I'll get it tomorrow.

That said, I've only had one rental, rented one out this week. No other interest in one. Too bad, I wish I could rent them a bit more so I could ROI them and replace all my RED Drives with RED RAM.
