Lenstag Rescue: Help Recover Stolen Cameras

Lenstag Rescue is a Chrome extension that aids in the recovery of stolen cameras. It employs a unique method of tracking down stolen cameras by checking for camera serial numbers in images across the web. If it identifies a serial number in an image, it sends the relevant data via a secure connection to Lenstag. The found details are then utilized to locate and recover the stolen camera registered on Lenstag - a free service providing a public platform for registering and flagging stolen photographic gear.
