Online Insurance for Owners of Camera, Sound & Lighting Gear

Cameraman: Insurance for Owners of Camera, Sound & Lighting Gear

This unique offering allows owners of filming equipment the chance to get quick quotes and process policy documents in less than five minutes, 365 days a year, 24/7.

“Visitors to the site that purchase a policy can sleep easy knowing their gear is covered on and off the set all year. The equipment is covered worldwide including while in transit to a job. The site also offers general liability. Office contents, earthquake and flood coverage are offered at no extra cost,“ says David Hamilton, President of Front Row in Vancouver. “This is a disruptive product for owners of camera, lighting and sound equipment because of the much lower cost and ability to purchase a policy in minutes. The expected savings should average ~30 percent. Commercial use of camera, lighting and sound equipment is not covered under a typical homeowners policy: our online DigiGear insurance is an inexpensive and fast solution to this problem.”

Available to Canadian equipment owners at: https://digigearinsure.frontrowinsurance.com

The policy term is for 12 months.

All equipment is covered for: theft, damage, fire and loss of use. Rental equipment coverage is also available.

The online link ensures industry-low prices:

  • $10,000 equipment coverage: $80, plus a fee (subject to change)
  • $2,000,000 annual location liability coverage: $500 (subject to change)
  • $1,000 deductible for gear (subject to change)

The online program for film gear owners follows Front Row’s lead over the past two years into online offerings for short-term filmmakers, photographers and musicians. “We wanted to make the insurance process easier, faster and cheaper for film gear owners,” says Hamilton, “The cost to process a camera insurance policy is much less online and we have passed the savings on in the form of a less expensive policy. Although the DigiGear policy is online, we are still available to answer questions by email or phone, if required.”
