Full Frame Reviews
Here’s what other photography professionals have to say about their experience.
Really easy & just what I needed now that I’ve upgraded my gear and need to have that peace of mind. Hopefully, I won’t need to submit a claim in the future, but if I do, I hope it goes as well as the purchasing did.
Great, fast insurance at a perfect price. We work and shoot weddins internationally so it was super convenient to have fast, easy coverage for the few weddings that we had in the states this year. There were a couple of changes that I needed to make after purchasing a single-day policy and their customer support was super helpful and fast. Thank you, Full Frame!
The easiest and fastest insurance experience I’ve ever encountered! I was overpaying dramatically for my business insurance before I found Full Frame. I’m so glad I found them!
Quick easy and more affordable than other options. I called to get a question answered and it was a really nice experience, the lady I spoke with was really helpful and kind.
Easier way to get insurance for your event. Hopefully I will never have to use it. 📸📽️
Ordering was super simple. Hopefully if I need to make a claim one day, that will be simple.

Do I Have To Pay A Deductible To Receive Coverage For My Damaged Gear?
Hopefully you never have to file a claim for your damaged gear, but if you do, there is a deductible of $250 per claim that you will be required to pay before receiving coverage. You will not be required to pay a deductible at any time other than when you file a claim for damaged gear.
What Does Camera Equipment Insurance Count As “One Item” For The Purposes Of Coverage?
An item is defined as one or more objects that were included together at the time of purchase. For example, if you purchased a camera body that came with a camera lens, both the body and the lens would be considered one item. However, if the camera body did not come with a lens, and you had to purchase a lens separately, each object would be considered as its own individual item.
Will My Camera Equipment Insurance Cover Me Outside Of The Country?
Yes! Go ahead and book that international shoot. Our camera equipment insurance is a worldwide policy and will cover your gear outside of the United States. We can insure your cameras, lenses, lighting equipment, and more. This policy is designed to respond to camera equipment insurance claims on and off premises and during transportation.
Does Camera Equipment Insurance Cover Rented Gear?
No, it does not. Full Frame Insurance only offers camera equipment insurance to photography equipment owned by the photographer.
Will Camera Insurance Cover My Gear If It Is Stolen From My Car?
No. Full Frame Insurance does not protect for theft from an unattended vehicle or trailer unless the owner or an employee is within 10 yards and only during loading or unloading of equipment.
What Kinds of Equipment are NOT Covered by FFI?
FFI’s equipment coverage is based on a type of policy called Tools & Equipment Insurance (sometimes referred to as “Inland Marine”). This means the kinds of equipment we insure are limited to the specific tools you rely on to produce the final product of your business. These tools must also be mobile in nature, as in, equipment that is regularly transported as part of your work. Things like your camera, portable hard drives, mobile lighting, microphones, and even certain computers are all eligible for coverage. FFI will NOT insure things like:
-Permanently installed studio lighting, furniture, or props.
-Things used to help you gain access to a shooting location. (Camping equipment, climbing gear, outdoor apparel, etc.)
-Your car or other means of transportation.
-A laptop or electronics that aren’t primarily used for business purposes.
-Anything that is contraband or in the course of illegal transport.
FFI also does not offer coverage for drones at this time as high loss probability and certain FAA regulations make them difficult to insure.
