A quick hats off to Canon and their crew at our Balloon Fiesta. They had a “ask the experts section with really nice lenses and pleasant, knowledgeable folks plus they had a desk set up to lend cameras and lenses for free!! From small P & S, M5 and M6, Rebel T7, all the way to 5DIV. Since I brought my own and was already lugging my own gear, I didn’t borrow anything but did think that was very cool.
I asked if the rumors were true about a new FF mirrorless, but the Canon gurus couldn’t confirm or deny, but did say it was likely.

Agreed! Had a chat with one of the experts. Very knowledgeable folks. Like you I already had my 7D2 to lug around, but would have loved to try the 5DIV.

Great idea, but that's gotta be risky - loss and damage.

You have to leave your driver’s license or gov ID. You don’t get it back till you return the item.
Canon does this at all major events. One reason they are so popular. Nikon does some events too. My son said they and Canon are at all the Nascar events he has covered.
