Try before you buy

Rent, test, and benefit from a discount!

A (video) camera or lens can be a significant investment. Sometimes you’d rather try it first before making a purchase—and we completely understand that.

That’s why you can rent a product from us first and then buy it. Ideal for photographers and videographers who are still unsure! Plus, you’ll receive a discount if you decide to purchase the same product afterwards.

Why Try Before You Buy?

Peace of mind

Of je nu een camera zoekt voor professioneel gebruik of een lens wil testen voor je volgende reis: door eerst te testen, weet je zeker dat het bevalt voordat je een grote investering doet.

Attractive discount

Did you purchase the rented product within 30 days after your rental period? Then you will receive the price of your first rental day (including VAT) as a discount. This can significantly reduce your purchase price.

This also applies to second-hand and outlet models.

Largest range to test

At Kamera Express, you’ll find the largest selection to test before you buy. Whether you’re curious about a new photo camera, video camera or lens, this way you can always make the right choice for your way of working.

How does it work?

In just a few steps, you can use Try Before You Buy at Kamera Express:

  • Rent from Budgetcam

  • Test the equipment

Try the product in your own way. Discover whether it fits your photography style and your other gear.

  • Decide within 30 days

If you’re convinced, visit one of the Kamera Express stores in the Netherlands, Belgium, or Germany within 30 days after your rental period.

  • Bring your invoice and ID

Don’t forget to bring your rental invoice and identification. This allows us to verify who you are and confirm your eligibility for the discount.

  • Receive a discount on your purchase

You’ll receive a discount equal to the value of your first 2 rental days including VAT. This also applies if you choose a second-hand or outlet model, or if you trade in an older model.
