Hi Guys
I know this has been asked before, but who is best to insure the gear with.
At present I have a $17000 policy clause added to my household insurance,which covers me for home and also in the field. The insurance company is NRMA and the extra premium is $266. Is this reasonable ?

Thanks
Jeff

Very reasonable. Does it include public liability though?

I am through AON, and pay about $800 a year for 16K of gear and 10 mill public liability.

You shooting Bathurst?

The cost for NRMA sounds resonable to me.
I can see the possible need for public liability (Is it an accrditation requirement?) but it is a big jump for what would be a very low probibility event. But I supose that a big lens could poke someone in the eye. :)
