Camera Equipment Rental

Here is how this works in practice. Camera gear rental in Peru routes through a defined set of Lima-based partners — Audiovisual Project Perú and Filmtek Perú as the dominant ARRI houses, Cinesphere Rentals for the broader narrative inventory, El Niño Rentals for commercial and broadcast configurations, Tondero Rentals connected to the Tondero Studios production pipeline, RentCam Perú for boutique drama, and Cinerental Perú and La Mecha for documentary and indie features — and our team books across those inventories to assemble the body, lens, support, and accessory stack a production actually needs.

Here is the short of it. ARRI Alexa Mini LF, Alexa 35, and Alexa Mini, RED V-Raptor, Komodo, and Helium, Sony Venice 2, FX9, FX6, and FX3 sit at the centre of the request list, supported by Cooke S7/i and Anamorphic sets, Zeiss Supreme Primes, ARRI Signature Primes, Master Primes, and the Master Anamorphic glass that Peruvian features increasingly favour. Every package goes through documented prep at the Lima rental site before delivery, with sensor cleaning, lens calibration, firmware logged, batteries conditioned, and media formatted to the DIT's workflow.

Here is the breakdown. Global productions land most of their gear through Jorge Chávez Global Airport in Lima Callao, with ATA Carnet records processed through SUNAT and Peruvian customs clearance handled by the same coordinator who books the rental.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. Domestic freight runs through LATAM Cargo, Sky Cargo, and JetSmart Cargo for inter-city transfers — Lima to Cusco's Alejandro Velasco Astete Airport next-day for Sacred Valley schedules, the capital to Arequipa and Iquitos for Amazon and Andean unit bases, and Hilux 4x4 or 6x6 transport for the off-road runs into Manú, Tambopata, and the high-altitude locations where road access is limited.

Here is how the picture comes together. PUCP-trained camera technicians and DITs working alongside DPs like Inti Briones, Mario Bassino, and Luis Otero Vega can be added to the booking when prep support in Lima or on-set help at 3,400 metres in Cusco is needed. Emergency replacement and cross-rental between partner houses runs through the same coordinator. This matters when an Alexa Mini LF goes down on day three of a Sacred Valley schedule.
