Theft of photo equipment has become a specialty in the Bay Area. TV news crews have been robbed of their video cameras at gunpoint. It's too bad you (apparently) didn't know about this trend before you visited. PRONOUN ADVISORY: OhLook is a she. | Comments welcome

Tom, I'm afraid you don't know the local area. These thefts have been going on for quite a while. Police departments here fall far short of the ideal, and they're overwhelmed by the high rate of person crime. PRONOUN ADVISORY: OhLook is a she. | Comments welcome

Most police departments are really good at tracking down this kind of stuff and prosecuting the scoundrels who stole it. . The police officers were there and a report has been filed. A lead investigator have also been assigned. Just wait and see now

We haven't been able to find anything under $500 a year. How much equipment? 5 yrs ago I had like 30K equipment with $1 million liability for < $700 and this in CA. Even if it was $1000/$2000 it is part of doing business IMHO. What happens if you save that $1000/$2000 and loose all your equipment and then can't work. Fuji XT-1, 18-55mm

Twin Peaks is a hot spot for quick, brazen camera grabs. PRONOUN ADVISORY: OhLook is a she. | Comments welcome
