UK Camera Insurance - Advice Please
Hi, did a bit of searching on this topic but could n't find anything UK related. Just about to take delivery of a PMW-EX3, have a new MBP and various audio items all totalling about £11.5 Grand so far.
I'm already starting to plan out shoots with corporate clients etc. and now I'm thinking I'd better get some insurance to cover all this new gear for when it all arrives in the next week or so. Anyone UK based have any recommendations for who to approach? My household and buildings insurance is with Direct Line but I'm not convinced (right now) that the're the cheapest or best to approach. I'm quite prepared to have a different company and put it through my business account so who would be a good company to approach? Anyone using someone they would recommend and any reasons why?

I'd also like to know about this, as I've just got a Z7 and need insurance as well.

I use Golden Valley Insurance (based in Shropshire- they specialise in photographic, video and sound stuff (but also do birds and music). When I've made a claim, I've found them quick and helpful.
