MMiller Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 A while back, we discussed the hazards of being robbed of camera equipment, especially in San Francisco, but in this case and a couple of others not very long ago, photographers visiting San Francisco were not only robbed of their equipment, but murdered too. I imagine most big cities pose similar hazards, yet this place, Twin Peaks with the great views of San Francisco , where I too have photographed, is close to home. http://www.mercedsunstar.com/news/state/article161929978.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMiller Posted July 19, 2017 Author Share Posted July 19, 2017 No leads I know of. I imagine that in the future we could "digitally sign" a unique code into our camera equipment as we buy and sell legally, that goes in conjunction with serial numbers (some national or international registry like with auto registration numbers), so it would be worthless to thieves?

DDoug Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Thanks for the heads up, Mark. I'm headed there in a few weeks and will take it into account when deciding what to go and shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
