Photography Insurance
It isn't just your camera and the equipment that you use with it that needs insuring against which is where photography insurance comes into play. What about all of the pictures both still and moving that they produce? Photos, prints, DVDs, videos, pretty much your whole portfolio of work! These can easily be lost, stolen or damaged either from your place of work, or when you are taking them around from one job or location to another. It is possible to put photography insurance in place so that their value is covered in case the unexpected happens. These pictures may be valuable to your work or just to you sentimentally, this value should be covered and there are plenty of cheap photography insurance products in place to allow you to do this.
Digital Camera Insurance
You don't need to be any sort of professional to know that the latest digital cameras can come at quite a price. These fun gadgets are often taken all over the place with us no matter how serious we take out photography. Weddings, sporting events, music gigs, nights out with friends or family or holiday snaps, there are countless occasions that we reach for the camera! It is perhaps one of the most undervalued things that we own so why not treat it, and also your bank balance, with some respect and take out a cheap and easy camera insurance policy. There is camera insurance available for digital cameras and it is well worth having.
Many people may think that their digital camera is covered on their household contents policy or even holiday insurance policy, and often they are right to assume this, BUT there are often caps on the amount you can claim against per item and a digital camera can easily exceed this cap. With digital camera insurance you can insure your camera by make and model so that if the worse happens you have no problems replacing it and are not left having to foot most of the cost yourself because your insurer denies the claim or asks for a big excess!
