Camera shops will hire most anything at stupid prices. I looked at hiring a Pentax eyepiece as a way of "try before you buy", but the min. is normally 6months and accounts for 40%-60% of the purchase price.

I'd try gum tree for tripods, you can get some very heavy duty tripods ex survey gear etc pretty cheap at times.

Other than that, Leon suggestion would be good if they exist, as they might not be so money grabbing as the stores I tried.

Event hire places might be an idea... you just want a tripod suitable for mounting a large speaker on etc... All you need to know is the mount thread, size in mm, thread type fine/course, male/female connection, they might have something suitable.
