I could loan you my rig.

But you should also check with the school. Back in the (18)90's I was able to rent a camera for a VERY reasonable fee.

steve and kleinbl00 I got one from a dude not taking the class, gratsi.

They do let you rent at the school but there are only like 10 and this is a 70 person class.

You're turning this into a contest of "how much I'm not willing to buy shit" and you don't want to go that route because I'm terribly cheap if it means I can find an out elsewhere.

Slight-tangent question: where does that put you with fitness wearables then?

If I had a spare camera to lend you, I'd lend it.

Fitness wearables? Like fitbits?

My take is that I count calories, and those calories are counted against an "active" lifestyle. If I subtract a fitbit from those calories it's giving me fake achievements. However, if I choose a "sedentary" lifestyle and subtract a fitbit from them, it should give me the exact same measurement as I had without the fitbit.

Except I had to buy (and wear) a fitbit.
