Is it possible to get Camera insurance in Sydney, Australia?

I've got my equipment under my Home Contents policy at the moment but would prefer to have a specialist policy.

I've Google'd but can only find UK insurance brokers. Not sure if they provide cover down under :P


There can be few professions outside artificial insemination and parachuting, where equipment is as crucial as it is for a photographer

enigmatic, Unfortunately I don't have any answers for you but it was something I was wondering about recently too. From what I've seen USA is the land of Insurance and couldn't find any insurance policies in Australia to cover this. Someone recommended to me to look at one of the brokers who handle travel insurance which may be able to be applied within Australia while you're not at home and thus covered by the Home & Contents policy - some type of domestic travel insurance I guess? I didn't however pursue it any further but would be interested to see what comes from it though. It would certainly give me some piece of mind when walking around with a few thousand $$ of equipment.
