I'm doing some pick ups for a short film i've shot (mainly on the Epic see below) and i'm going to need a set of M 4/3 manual lenses (for my GH2) for extreme CUs maximising shallow depth of field etc. The only place in the UK i've found that hires M 4/3 lenses is http://www.hireacamera.com/account/basket.asp. They seem reasonable but the options are limited and i was wondering if any shooters out there in the UK would rent out their kit (ideally the Voigtlander / SLR MAGIC 12, 25 and 50 0.95s) for a weekend? I'm happy to pay a going rate and i'm insured.

Otherwise i'll have to borrow a 5D mark II as Canon kit is easy to find and plentiful in hire firms.. (don't wanna though!).

I've got the voigtlander 25mm and access to the 12mm but only have canon fd 50mm 1.4 . Let me know if that's any good for you
 
The Voigt 25 and the 12 SLR MAGIC are the most important! I've got a full set of FDs but the 25 and the 12 are the key ones.
Will PM!
 
Is the 17.5 mm t.095 not wide enough for establishing shots? I never even knew that voitlander had a 12mm lens does anyone have a link?
