I have an old 30d. Canon doesn't make one but there are a few aftermarket ones out there.

 

ohh..

yea aftermarket im not sure about how you replace those.

but on the 40D its really simple as well.

 

my 5d was stolen last night (with the 50 1.4 - I would have been REALLY mad if the 24-70 was on it). i left it unattended for too long at a restaurant (not a place I expected any crime scene). I was drinking and thought it would be ok where it was, at the end of the night it was gone. for the number of times Ive taken my camera out to places, it surprises me that this happened at a restaurant and not at a club. anyways, trying to see if insurance can help me.

 

Ouch! Did you file a police report? I'd do that w/ serial number(s) so that insurance will be satisfied and pawn shops can be alerted. This would sicken me to no end...very sorry this happened to you.

 

 

damn, sorry to hear that Rubin.

did you have them listed on your policy? Thats something I really need to do as my gear list grows. My only problem is that my fiancee is my agent, and she would have to find out what I actually paid for everything

 

I was hoping I might hear something from restaurant today. but no. I havent done a police report. I think I will have to for any insurance claim. I hope (and think) I did list it on my policy.

 

 

does this mean no more club pictures?

 

Rubin, go down there a file a report...the sooner the better!

 

+1

 

Damn, so sorry to hear that.

 

camera is covered under my homeowners insurance! will find out more Monday.

 

sorry to hear that it had the 24-70 on it

 

hey!

 

you obviously didnt pick up on the

 

of course I picked up on it. That's why I said what I said.

 

Insurance fraud just ruins it for everyone else
I need to be sure my gear is covered under my insurance!

 

1ds, 2011, 2470, 26608, 60d, annie, avalon, canon, dynamic, lapse, leibovitz, perception, quartz, rumors, rumours, time, toyota, watches

i wonder how the server or whatever decides these should be tags for this thread.

 

That sucks big donkey balls, Rubin. Sorry. I know that camera was practically a part of you at this point.

 

really need to sell my 17-55 and 40D. they're just collecting dust now

thinking $700 for the lens and $350-400 for the 40D

 

yeah. the suckiest part for me was the actual moment of having to leave the restaurant without the camera, knowing that it had been taken from me. :-/

 

yea i cant imagine how id feel if my gear was stolen from me : (

 

I wasnt serious, as stated above, my fiancee is an agent, and her father owns the agency

 

i knew you werent serious, it was the other peeps that ghey'ed it up...

 

Wow, that sucks Srika. Hope the insurance takes care of you.

 

Srika... Did you lose any images in the camera? That really sucks. Getting things stolen just winds me up.

 

thanks guys, no images lost. that would have REALLY pissed me off. I have had that happen before, though. when I had a film snapshot camera in the 90's... which was stolen.

 

I dunno man, if that's you in the avatar, then I think you look like someone who would commit insurance fraud and take part in insider trading. I think it's the suit.

 

good writeup about 7D's AF system

yeah, I do kinda look like a sleezy car salesman, huh?

 

sucks!

 

Really sucks to hear Srika... I am glad insurance will cover you, but it still feels terrible.

 

 

Couple days late as usual with me, but really sorry to hear about your 5D Rubin. I think I would have reverse robbed the restaurant if that happened to me.

"Nobody *ucking leaves until I get my damn camera back!"

 

^heh. .. thanks. yeah, I was feeling pretty hostile, but figured I should probably not cause a scene.

 

well, just spoke to insurance, they will only replace it with an existing equivalent camera, so it looks like I will get a 5D2, grip, and 50 1.4. oh and also my homeowner's insurance premium goes up by around $35 a year. I'm content with that. finalizing tomorrow.

 

WOW. That doesn't quite suck!

 

Now that I see this, he just dumped it in the busboy tray...

 

Exactly!
