Stolen Camera? Find Your Stolen Camera (Hopefully) with this website

A new way to help identify stolen gear!

RegisterYourCamera.com is a free online service for registering your photographic equipment and the brainchild of former Intel software engineer who is an avid photographer. If someone steals your camera, simply enter the serial number and a description of your gear into the online database and your done. When someone performs a quick serial number search against the database, your item will then be listed as stolen and the person doing the search may then contact you via your preferred method. Get enough people using this and you have very effective way of track missing gear. 

This is a terrific new path forward in finding lost or stolen photography gear.  It's dreadful as a photographer having someone steal a camera you invested thousands of dollars into and sacrificed so much for.  For many, losing a camera is losing an entire hobby.   Hopefully the next thing they'll invent is a GPS tracker for our cameras ....(sigh)
