I would check with your homeowners and renters insurance. With State Farm's standard
renter's insurance covers it with a $250 deductible. BUT, I use the camera gear for
commercial purposes so I have to pay an extra $5 a month. That is worth it to me.
With that rider I don't think I have to pay the deductible and they even adjust it for
inflation.
The first thing I did before I even put my L lenses on the camera was to fax the
invoice to the insurance company so it was covered immediately.
I hope all turns out well for you, I feel your pain. I think I'd rather break and arm
than loose one of my 'L' lenses. I will be on the college budget thing later this
year.
