How much does it cost to rent an ARRI Alexa Mini LF in Delhi?
The Alexa Mini LF is ₹22,500 per day in Delhi NCR, shipped pelican-cased with cables, media and an accessories cage. Weekly rates run at roughly five times the day rate. Glass prices separately: Zeiss Supreme Primes ₹11,000 per day for the six-lens set, Atlas Orion 2x anamorphics ₹7,500, Zeiss CP.3 ₹4,000. Crew is optional — operator ₹4,000, focus puller ₹3,000, DIT ₹3,500. NCR delivery is not charged extra within the ring-road cities.
What is included with the Alexa Mini LF rental?
The body ships with a full accessories cage, cables, media and pelican-cased transit. A rental is dry by default — camera only — so lens sets, matte box, follow focus, monitors, batteries beyond the standard set, and crew are added as you need them. Tell us the shoot format and we will build the package rather than making you spec it line by line.
Which lenses pair with the Alexa Mini LF for a Delhi shoot?
The usual large-format pairing is Zeiss Supreme Primes — 25/29/35/50/85/100mm at T1.5, full-frame coverage, native LPL — at ₹11,000 per day for the set. For anamorphic, the Atlas Orion 2x set (32/40/65/80mm, T2, PL mount) at ₹7,500 gives true anamorphic oval bokeh rather than a post-applied approximation. Zeiss CP.3 at ₹4,000 is the budget spherical option. Anamorphic sets need advance booking; they are the first thing to go on feature weeks.
Alexa Mini LF or Sony Venice 2 — which should I book?
Take the Alexa Mini LF for ARRI colour science and a lighter, more riggable body — it is the default for features, high-end TVCs and anything going through a conventional DI. Take the Venice 2 at ₹40,000 for 8.6K resolution, 16-bit X-OCN and its dual base ISO when you need reframing headroom or are shooting in low light. Most Delhi productions that ask us book the Mini LF; the Venice 2 tends to go out on national spots where the client has specified resolution.
Can I rent an ARRI camera in Gurgaon or Noida, not just Delhi?
Yes. Same rate, same kit. We deliver to set across the whole of NCR — Gurgaon including Cyber City, Udyog Vihar and Golf Course Road; Noida and Greater Noida including Film City and the Expressway studios; Faridabad and Ghaziabad. West Delhi locations including Dwarka, Janakpuri, Rajouri Garden and Rohini are usually within a few hours. Karnal and Chandigarh are covered on 24-hour notice, and the kit travels anywhere in India on insured air-cargo.
Do you provide an ARRI-trained operator in Delhi NCR?
Yes. Certified ARRI operators are ₹4,000 per day, focus pullers ₹3,000 and DITs ₹3,500. For large-format anamorphic work a focus puller is worth budgeting for rather than treating as optional — the depth of field on a Mini LF with Orions at T2 leaves very little margin. Our DOPs have shot national campaigns including Policy Bazaar, Walkaroo and Vega.
What deposit and insurance apply to an Alexa Mini LF rental?
A refundable security deposit is standard, typically 50–100% of the kit replacement value — higher at this tier given the body value. We accept bank transfer, UPI and an authorised credit-card hold, and deposits are returned same day after return and inspection. For cover, use your own production insurance rider (we supply invoices and serial numbers for the schedule) or our in-house cover at 2–4% of rental value per day. A 50% advance confirms the booking.
How much notice do you need to book an Alexa Mini LF in Delhi?
Availability can usually be confirmed within about two hours on WhatsApp during business hours, and the body ships same day across NCR. The practical constraint is that this is our most requested premium body — weekend and feature-week dates go early, and anamorphic sets go earlier still. If your dates are fixed, book ahead; if they are flexible, tell us and we will find the window.
