sorry mate, i cant think of anywhere at the moment, i mean i am in country vic so that doesnt help, but member/user : "rflower" - russell is usually the guy i contact when i am in the need to know for melbourne. he's always full of handy info, a man in the know so to speak! Good luck finding something, i hope u get it all sorted in time!

I did some searching and found a few hire places, but none of them are packing a 200mm f/2.

Same story as Wink ...

But I have found the following in and around Melbourne. I am not associated with any of them, but I have hired from Camera Exchange.

All 3 have 70-200 2.8 or 80-200 2.8 for around $40-$70 per day. Maybe this will do what you need, without losing too much in the way of f stops?

...You'd get robbed leaving the store?

With many of the stores, you'd get robbed within the store.

Correct. I happen to know the location of one about 100km west of the Sydney CBD.

There aren't many stores with them in store to begin with, so it would definitely feel like your being robbed in store!
