The object
One complete cinema camera package (body, lenses, support), insured and maintained by an established rental house.
The economics
  • Acquisition: about €120,000 for the package
  • Revenue: daily rentals through the operator
  • Costs: insurance, maintenance, the operator's share
  • Exit: resale of the package after its useful years
The geometry
  • A dedicated company owning the package, financed through a licensed partner
  • Or a small co-ownership with a management contract with the rental house
It starts when
  • A rental house signs a letter of intent
  • Insurance is confirmed for a package it does not own
  • Three productions say they would book it
  • Financing opens only through a licensed partner
What you receive
Participants receive the rights the final structure defines. Risks: low bookings, damage, the package ageing faster than planned.
