Photographers are a ham-fisted bunch. At least, that’s one way to interpret the statistics.
In the 2014 records of Towergate Insurance Brokers, 93 out of 100 insurance claims from professional photographers were related to accidental damage. And at InFocus Insurance, "people dropping kit and kit getting wet" are the most common claims. Specialist insurer Photoguard’s records show a very similar pattern.
