Hello All  what is the going rate for a 2nd cameraman filming from midday to end of speeches (about 7.00pm)?

I've paid anything from £100 - £200 depending on location. Don't forget that even though it's only a few hours, nothing else can be booked in for that day.

Do not follow, I may not lead. Do not lead . . . I may not follow.

Thanks for that - seems reasonable. I was thinking £125 plus petrol money

And for that money are you guys expecting your second cameraperson to be providing their own gear?
