B&H Surprised Me With a Canon EOS R + 24-105mm! Griffin Hammond & Nick Bodmer Download

B&H Surprised Me With a Canon EOS-R + 24 105mm!

When B&H invited Griffin to an after-hours gift exchange, he wasn’t expecting to go home with a $3,400 camera kit. And he definitely wasn’t expecting Canon’s new mirrorless EOS R with 24-105mm lens!

Six other YouTubers walked away with excellent prizes as well: Steve Ronin, Armando Ferreira, Thunder E/Booredatwork, Jon Reyes, Jacklyn/NothingButTech88 and Brendan Miranda.

Thank you so much to Mendy Paul at B&H for inviting me! Happy holidays!
