Insurance options for Steadicam equipment coverage

14 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.

What the thread found

  • A specialized insurance provider commonly used by Steadicam operators covers equipment for full replacement value and avoids many exclusions found in standard policies
  • Insurance premiums are calculated based on the total replacement value of equipment and the chosen deductible amount, with coverage typically paid on a yearly basis rather than monthly
  • Minimum annual premiums historically started around five hundred dollars and could cover up to twenty-five thousand in equipment value
  • Deductibles and premiums scale with the amount of equipment value being insured

Depends on

  • Premium and coverage information is from 2012 and may not reflect current rates
  • Specific pricing examples are from one person's historical experience and may not apply to new policies
  • No details provided about how deductibles and premiums are currently calculated
