Renting is a good idea, except it's hard to even find a camera store anymore, much less one that would rent. There are some national online camera rental shops. Maybe I could find one there.

Sorry for the slow reply. Network problems today caused by power blinks in the thunderstorms.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Btw: I know it's more camera than I need but I figure I've earned the right to a few splurges. When you turn 60, your perspective suddenly changes, lol.
