The discussion regarding who would buy the new D645 made me wonder how much you folk spend on your career/hobby/addiction.
About NZ$22,000, which accounts for items I've owned then sold again. I think this figure is pretty up-to-date.
The items I've chosen to insure total about NZ$17,000; only a few items are listed at "brand new" replacement value (because business insurance is frighteningly expensive). Actually I think the only two items in this category would be the 43mm Limited and the FA100/2.8 Macro lenses.
In my case you can also add a printer, the film scanners, computers, software etc... that's about another NZ$12,000 which is all insured at "new-for-old" replacement value. I use that stuff as part of my photography so I think it counts.
Sorry about using our Monopoly-money currency - I'm too lazy to work out the exchange rate (it's at an all-time high, too).
Cheers,
