Endurax V6 Camera Backpack

In the attached video, I visit my city’s downtown area to try out this camera backpack from Endurax called the ED-V6.

Keep in mind that Endurax sent me this at no charge for test and to make a video on. Check out the Endurax ED-V6 Vintage Camera Backpack through my links on Amazon.com and eBay.com . Or visit the Endurax store on Amazon to see their other bags.

As of the making of this video and article, Canon USA’s website is down due to a ransomware hack. We will be using the Canada website, but if I remember later on I will update this page with the USA link as wel...
