Camera Loan Program
Although it's not required, the easiest way to capture 360-images for your tour is with a 360 camera! Don't have one? We offer a no-cost camera loan program. Loan durations are limited to one week during training season so that we can accomodate as many requests as possible. You can submit a request at any time but you must have completed Tour It 101 and registered for Tour It 102 at least one week prior to the camera-requested date. Requests will be filled in the order they are received. Submit a request.
