camera insurance

[chinacat46]

Just got an Oly c5050 and pt-015. I was wondering about insurance for it. So I was wondering what companies there were out there and who you use and why. Also if you've had to make a claim how did that go.

Thnx,

DEPP - claimed two video cameras year before last. Easy to deal with. I think reasonable rates. Extensive coverage.

I noticed you live in Australia. Do you know if you can get DEPP coverage using a Japanese address? I thought you had to be a US resident, but I'm hoping I'm wrong!!!

DEPP is definately US only. I'm in the UK and couldn't get cover through them.

Hmmm...both my hubbie (Aussie) and I (American) have insurance with them. Dunno...

Did you use an Aussie address to get it?

Yup, and DEPP uses (or did in 2002) Poraday in Sydney for repairs.
