Equipment Policy:
In order to make equipment available in the fairest manner possible
s All reservations are on a rst-come-rst-served basis.
s You can reserve the eld cameras up to 3 months in advance of your production.
s You can check out a AC160 Camera for up to 72 hours per reservation.
s You can have up to 72 hours of camera usage reserved at any one time. For example, you
could have 1 reservation of 72 hours, or 3 reservations of 24 hours each. You must use
one of these before you can reserve more time.
s You must be a “Producer” before you can reserve a camera. There is an annual fee of $50,
and you must present a government-issued photo ID to get your Producer Card.
s You’ll be asked to sign a “Producer Liability” form when you check-out the camera. Please
read it carefully, as it denes your rights and responsibilites if the equipment is damaged,
lost, or stolen.
s Please examine the equipment carefully before signing.
