My home owners insurance will make me pay my 1000 deductible so whats my other options? Canon T2i 18-55 / 24 / Sigma 30 1.4 /35-105 / 50 / 55-250

I just had it all "endorsed" today, actually. about $50 a year for my $3400 worth of stuff and I pay a $50 deductible. I can now take all my stuff on my friends rinky-dink boat and get some DUCK PICTURES (in a few months) without worrying about the boat flipping over. Canon EOS 1D III

Plan on about $9-$10 a year per $1,000 worth of coverage. Mine protects me against everything...to include dropping a lens. <knocks on wood>

davebmck Member  189 posts Joined Feb 2009 Location: Waxhaw, NC More info | I have Nationwide and they wrote me an add-on policy. Odd as it may sound, I think it was an Inland Marine policy. I have several valuables as well as my camera equipment and it's about the same as the others have posted, about $10 per $1000. I don't remember there being a deductible. If there is, its like $50 or something. The trick is to get it insured separately from your home owners or auto insurance. Canon 5D Mark II, 1D Mark IV
