Hillward Rent · Hamburg

Camera, lighting & grip.Rental in Hamburg.

Hamburg is a media and advertising city. Whether it’s a commercial, a campaign or social content, film equipment rental for your Hamburg shoot starts with one list. We request camera, lighting and grip from rental houses on location and send you a quote with every item, delivery and collection.

How it works

  1. 01

    Build your list

    Pick gear from templates and our catalogue. Or upload the list you already have, Excel, PDF or a photo.

  2. 02

    We take care of it

    We check your list with a lighting crew’s eye and confirm availability with rental houses on location.

  3. 03

    One quote

    You get one quote from us: every item, delivery and pick-up, one point of contact.

  4. 04

    Delivery or pick-up

    The rental house delivers to set at the agreed time, or you collect it yourself. After the shoot everything goes back.

Commercials, campaigns, content

Hillward is a lighting crew for film and commercials based in Düsseldorf. Our crew has worked on a TikTok campaign for ALDI SÜD, Satch Back to School 2025 and Coppenrath & Wiese, among others. We check your list with the same eye before we contact rental houses in Hamburg. More about the crew at hillward.de.

Lighting rental, thought through

Every fixture needs a stand, light shapers and power. As gaffers we notice when distros, cables or clamps are missing from your list, and we tell you before the request goes to the rental houses in Hamburg.

Add alternatives right away

Not every camera is free at every camera rental house in Hamburg on every date. So feel free to add alternatives that would work for you to the notes. We ask the rental houses on location about those too, and the quote shows what’s available.
