These are your too greatest areas of exposure. Would you buy auto insurance that didn't cover theft? Of course not. Also, the thing they don't tell you is that the passport warranty DOES NOT COVER cosmetic damage. Oh yes, what do you do if you are out of the country and you have a problem? Well, you are out of lock, because you have to return the camera to Leica USA....got-cha. <<< ...But Leica "gets got" in return, a bit...I understand there is a very small hard core of users who grab a sledgehammer and whack the crap out of their M6s every 35 months or so, and get a new one under the "Passport." It's not very efficient insurance otherwise. You still have to insure the darned things yourself. - --Mike
