Fujifilm has announced a new rental program, set to go live in the United States on March 16th.

Aptly called Fujifilm Professional Rental, the upcoming program is for photographers who would like to try out Fujifilm X-Series cameras and Fujinon XF lenses before making the larger investment of purchasing the gear.

Additionally, the program will include the Fujifilm Professional Repair Rental, which will loan out cameras and lenses to Fujifilm/Fujinon owners while their current gear is getting repaired.

In addition to the above conveniences, Fujifilm is hoping to further simplify the process with ‘One Price Shipping’ in the continental United States via prepaid return shipping labels.

This new program falls in line with similar programs that both Canon and Nikon offer, highlighting the fact Fujifilm is serious about reaching out to and catering its more serious photographers.

Pricing details aren’t yet available from Fujifilm, but as March 16th draws nearer, we’ll likely hear more. As more details emerge, we’ll be sure to keep you up to date.
