Lens Insurance

All of my kit, such as laptops, cameras, lenses, etc are covered under the possessions insurances under my contents insurance. It's about £50-100 a year extra for the all the cover I think, but it's worth it.
 
I think it depends if this is professionally used gear or just hobbyist gear. Also, read the fine print of your coverage and see if you are covered outside your dwelling - which is, after all, where your lenses are most likely to suffer damage.

I pay a very reasonable annual fee to Glover and Howe for insurance, and it covers me on the road as well as at home (just as well, given that I destroyed a £600 lens on the Isle of Arran and damaged a D200 in the Brecon Beacons!)

Whwn I bought a 350D from Jessops years ago I also bought a 3 year extended warranty for about 10% of the purchase price which I considered quite reasonable.

It covered any damage etc.

I never had to use it but always felt it was wothwhile especially considering the price.
