I was a police officer for thirty years. When I retired, I sold my guns.
A. What something costs is immaterial. What matters to a crook is what he can get for it and how easy it is to get rid of. Cameras aren't high on their list. Cash is number one on their list with credit cards number two. Cellphones are easy to get rid of as are laptop computers.
B. When I'm going out late, I try and find a friend to take pictures with me. I usually can't, so I go, mind my own business, and move quite a bit. Late at night, I usually have my tripod with me.
I am more concerned with drunks. Normal people can be irrational and violent nitwits when drunk.
