Everything you need to know about camera insurance

Whether it’s a holiday, a birthday or something out of the ordinary, we all like capturing unique moments on camera. It doesn’t matter whether you have a compact little ‘point and shoot’ or a top-of-the-range SLR, it’s a good idea to get it insured, just in case. After all, you wouldn’t want to chance losing your pictures. 

However, not all camera insurance is the same. There’s a big difference between the price and quality of cover that’s available from different insurance providers. The good news is, Protect your bubble’s comprehensive camera insurance policy takes into account the importance of price as well as quality, in terms of the protection it provides.

Here’s a bit more about our great value cover:

  • Accidental damage

If your camera is accidentally damaged, we’ll pay for the repair or replacement costs. So if you forget it’s in your bag and put something heavy on top of it or accidentally throw it down, you don’t have to panic*. Or if it falls off your sun lounger while you’re on holiday, it’s not the end of the world.

  • Theft

You can’t be too careful these days, so make sure you never leave your stuff unattended when you’re out and about. If the worst does happen though and your camera is stolen, tell the police straightaway** and we’ll sort out a new one for you.

  • Breakdown

What would you do if your camera broke and you couldn’t get your pictures from it? Our camera insurance includes electrical and mechanical breakdown cover, so if yours stops working, we’ll fix it or replace it for you – so you won’t necessarily have to lose any snaps you’ve already taken.

  • Loss

If you select the loss option, for an additional £1 per month, we will replace your camera should you lose it.

  • Worldwide cover as standard

Whether something happens to your camera in Barnet or Barbados, you’ll be protected against the costs of replacing or repairing your camera wherever you go. So if you’re on your holidays or using it away on business, you can relax even more.  

  • Additional lens cover

If you use a more technical camera than the usual point and shoot, we can arrange extra cover for individual items such as specialist lens equipment.

  • Great value cover from just £2.19 a month

Our comprehensive camera insurance offers better value than many of our competitors. So sign up today and you could be insured in a couple of minutes. After all, it could save you time and money later on.

*excess charge is £25 for cameras, plus an additional £25 for loss claims. We’ll pay any costs incurred after that, once your claim is approved.
**you must report your stolen camera within 24 hours and provide us with a crime reference number to be eligible for a new device.
