They tend to have gear that Samy's dont for rental. Additionally, they do have some gear for sale used and you can often find good deals.

I've been shooting with Sony for 2 decades. For me currently, Sony a7IV does the job. It is able to handle anything from product photography, portraits, sports, to concerts. Does really well in low light.

I own quite a few Godox lights. AD200 does well for on the god. AD400 Pro II is great for heavy studio use. V1S works great for on camera flash especially for events. I also own a few super small on camera flash that I use for fun.

The 2nd body I always have on me. It cant handle as much as the a7IV so I use it for back up just in case. However, it's still a great camera especially if you're looking for an affordable entry level mirrorless camera.

Oh my goodness! The gear I really needed without knowing I needed it. It has been great for so many things. I bring it on vacation, theme parks, BTS videos (it has face tracking). My 6yr old also loves to run around with it.
