Theft
Cover in case your camera and equipment are stolen in or out of the home.

What does our bespoke camera insurance cover?
What's covered
With our unpackaged cover you have the option to insure your equipment, insure yourself for Public Liability or combine both on one policy.
- Camera and photography equipment
We cover theft and accidental damage up to £60,000 on a New for Old basis (for equipment up to 3 years old). You can also opt to include theft and accidental damage to equipment outside of the insured location (i.e your home or studio) up to £30,000. Our equipment cover includes theft and accidental damage to cameras, lenses, stands and tripods, cases, video and audio equipment and accessories.

Public Liability insurance protects you and your business against claims arising from injuries to customers or members of the public, or for damage to third party property.

- Mobile phones and tablets
If your mobile phones and tablets are used in conjunction with your photography equipment, you can include this cover within your policy, to provide protection against theft and accidental damage.
- Cover outside of the UK
If you work outside of the UK in any capacity, it’s definitely worth considering adding the option to provide you with cover when working abroad. You can choose from either EU only or Worldwide cover.

I renewed today as this company gave me so much confidence originally when I needed cover for a trip abroad with my camera gear. Their no hassle approach with easy to understand options made me decide to stick with them.
