Hello,
I am a new joiner to this site and also recently moved to Singapore. I was looking on the internet for some insurance for my camera and lenses but do not seem to be getting a lot of hits. The one that I did find from Chubb seems to want to charge me almost 4% of my total equipment cost per year as premium. That seems a bit excessive as I am not a professional and not making any money out of my equipment! Does anyone have any advise or recommendation on insurance providers for camera equipment in Singapore?

Cheers!

If you are not a professional then look for Home Owner's Protection type of insurance/home insurance/property insurance, which may also cover the insured person's property as well and sometimes worldwide even as you travel. Just google.

If you really need such an insurance, I'm paying about 1.2% of my equipment as my cost of insurance. Pm me if you want more details.
