Medium DSLR Core Unit Included
The included Medium DSLR Core Unit v2 provides padded, configurable storage for gripped mirrorless and DSLR cameras, including setups with an attached 70-200mm F2.8 lens. Its EVA construction adds structure and shock protection, while adjustable dividers allow you to organise your equipment.
The complete insert can be removed or exchanged for another compatible Core Unit as your camera kit changes.
Quick Access To Your Equipment
The larger side opening provides direct access to the Core Unit, so you can reach camera equipment without opening the whole backpack. Three Capture Clip mounting positions also provide a choice of external attachment points when you want a camera immediately accessible.
Room For Outdoor Gear Too
The roll-top adds storage for clothing, personal items and other essentials above the camera compartment. Dedicated exterior holders accommodate a tripod or water bottle, with separate mounts for trekking poles and an ice axe, helping to keep bulky outdoor equipment outside the main storage area.
Comfortable Carrying
Air mesh extends across the harness, rear panel and belt for greater comfort while carrying equipment. A belt pocket provides easily accessible storage, while the shoulder-strap pocket includes a dedicated pen sleeve for another frequently used item.
Ready For Travel
A stowable luggage pass-through slides over compatible wheeled-luggage handles and tucks away when it isn’t needed. The dedicated sleeve accommodates laptops up to 16 inches, while the included colour-matched rain cover has taped seams for additional protection in wet weather.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can it carry a bigger telephoto lens?
Yes. Swap in the optional XL40 RST Core Unit to carry an attached 180-600mm or 200-600mm lens, or an unattached 600mm F4.
Should I choose the X40 Starter Kit or the X35 Pro Kit?
Choose the X40 for more capacity for clothing and outdoor gear. The X35 Pro Kit is the more compact option and includes the Large DSLR Core Unit for larger kits.
Can I use the bag without the Core Unit?
Yes. The Core Unit is removable, leaving the main compartment free for other equipment and personal belongings.
