Hi all, I'm looking to start a discussion on getting insurance for your camera and gear in the U.S.. Not necessarily production insurance, but I guess that can be a part of the chat as well. The last post on this topic seems to be from 4+ years ago. If you have a 16MM Arri/Aaton, lenses, tripod, accessories, etc - you're looking at $15K value on the low end. Depending on your specific gear and if you have a production company/more gear, can be $50k-$100K plus. It's important to protect our valuable gear in case shit happens. I'm looking to get a policy on my recently acquired SR2, lenses, Sacthler tripod, and other accessories. What company do you all use? Athos Insurance seems to be a popular one. Any experiences with them? And how do you determine the value of your gear? Market/eBay price? Price you purchased? I'd probably list out everything I want insured and it'll be in the range of $15k-$25K. Any general tips, stories, or recommendations for gear insurance? Thanks in advance, this forum has been a great resource to me. 😁

Hi everybody, Can anyone recommend an insurance company to cover my gear? Preferably one that you've dealt with before or even made a claim with. I'm not looking to rent it out to anyone else, it's just for my own use. Thanks!
