Thank You for Visiting DFI Rentals at Cine Gear Expo 2025
To everyone who visited the DFI Rentals booth at Cine Gear Expo 2025 in Los Angeles, thank you for stopping by. We had an incredible time connecting with cinematographers, producers, gaffers, ACs, and production teams from across the industry. Whether you were scoping out new gear, networking with rental houses, or looking for the next big innovation in production technology, we’re glad you found us.
This year, we didn’t just exhibit — we launched something that’s going to change how rentals work in Los Angeles and beyond.
Introducing the All-New DFI Rentals Experience — Launching July 1
Built from the ground up for working filmmakers, our new platform reimagines the entire film gear rental process with speed, flexibility, and clarity at the core. From on-demand gear delivery in Los Angeles to instant insurance coverage, everything we launched was designed to reduce friction and empower creative workflows.
Highlights from Our Cine Gear Expo 2025 Launch
If you're searching for what’s new at Cine Gear 2025 or top innovations from Cine Gear LA, here’s a detailed look at the updates we debuted:
A New Gear Rental Platform, Designed for Filmmakers
Launching July 1, our modernized rental platform gives users 24/7 access to browse equipment, build live quotes, and complete bookings directly online — no phone tag or paperwork delays.
DFICover: In-House Rental Insurance, Starting at $59
We’ve eliminated the back-and-forth of traditional insurance certificates. With DFICover, renters can instantly add damage and loss protection at checkout. Coverage starts at just $59, making insurance simple and transparent.
Real-Time Team Quote Collaboration
Share gear quotes with producers, directors, or team leads. Collaborate in real time, make edits, leave notes, and finalize together — ideal for productions with multiple stakeholders.
Modify Confirmed Orders Anytime
With flexible order management, users can now edit confirmed gear rentals up to 24 hours before pickup or delivery. Add or remove items as your shoot evolves.
2-Hour Gear Delivery Across Los Angeles
Our new express gear delivery service allows you to receive equipment within two hours anywhere in the LA area. Just select your delivery window and location — we handle the rest.
Auto-Saved Checkout and Booking Info
Save time on repeat rentals. Our system remembers your preferred payment method, insurance selections, COIs, and delivery addresses — helping productions move faster with fewer delays.
