Australia has a number of camera and related equipment rental companies. Panavision Australia and Arri are two of the better known suppliers, both companies are competitive rate wise and posses reliable well maintained motion picture equipment. An extensive range of cameras and lenses are available here including the latest from Panavision, Arriflex, Aaton, Mitchell, Photosonic, including the latest in digital technology, inclusing The Red Camera.

In Australia most Key Grips and Gaffers own their own trucks and equipment, this contributes to towards some fairly friendly competition, and insures that equipment is well maintained and constantly updated. These guys can supply everything from Libra or Scorpio 3-axis remote heads, 30ft Supertechnocranes to aerial cable camera systems, and if they don't have it in the truck it can be hired.

From a Producers point of view the 'Equipped Tuck ' system is a dream as it saves some very unnecessary expenses such as having to pay for equipment you don't use and having to itemise every piece of equipment hired. Basically you pay for what comes out of the truck on the day. Finally they or their assistants drive their own trucks to work.
