like mi tell everyone don't wear nor bring expensive things to Jamaica......
you are just drawing unwanted attention to yourself by carrying a $1,000US camera around......

there is no need for it at all........and you are just asking for it......trust mi........
nuthin wrong with the point and click cameras........they are cheap and take great pics........mi always carry two

I have taken a DSLR camera to Jamaica many times including "white" Canon glass. But I was staying all-inclusive with fairly tight security. My next trip, in 6 sleeps, I will be carrying my Canon 7D and 3 prime lenses only. I called my insurance company and they insured me for $2500 with zero deductible for $3 a month. My regular homeowners insurance would have covered it but then I would have to pay the deductible.

I'm always cautious and lock my things down but you certainly never know what will happen. The insurance gives me peace of mind. Anyway... I bought the camera so I could take it to cool places. Negril qualifies. :-)
