Stolen 02 Feb 2010 Rucksack stolen containing amongst other stuff:

KM 5D - Ser. No. 00508546
MF Adapter
Schneider Kreuzenach Xenar 50mm f2.8.
It was in an old pale blue Jessops holster bag.

This occurred in the area of Victoria station in SW London.

Funny you started this, my experience started me thinking of starting a website that dealers could subscribe to that listed users submitted stolen gear info (together with crime number to stop spoofs).

NOTE ADDED: If you find that you have the camera/lens, don't be shy as I was covered by my insurance claim, it would be just nice to know that that my old cam was in good hands again. Of course if you want to sell it back to me then that's fine too.

Cheers

Sandy

Maybe this would be a technical solution approach for the future...
