Product Summary

This Core Unit accommodates 1–2 professional camera bodies and 6–8 lenses, including an attached 180–600mm or 200–600mm telephoto zoom. The 17cm internal depth suits gripped mirrorless cameras and full-sized DSLRs, providing extra clearance for larger equipment.

The enlarged side opening matches the Action X35, X40 and X50 v3 backpacks for quick access. Adjustable EVA dividers organise the interior, while an aluminium frame adds rigidity. A removable water-resistant skin protects the insert during storage or doubles as a packing cell for clothing and other travel essentials.

A Shallower Fit for Mirrorless Systems

The deeper construction provides clearance for integrated grips, battery grips and larger professional bodies that need more space than a shallow mirrorless insert. Its generous interior also allows photographers to organise multiple lenses and accessories around their main equipment.

Lighter Protection

EVA laminated walls and dividers protect your kit while taking up less space than conventional thick foam, and the aluminium frame keeps the insert rigid when the pack is loaded. The skin keeps dust off when the unit is stored outside your backpack.

Side Access and Modular Packing

The enlarged opening aligns with the redesigned side doors of compatible Action X v3 backpacks. The insert also fits the Action X70, Shimoda Carry-On Roller and DV Roller, although side-access functionality differs between bags.

For larger equipment collections, a Small DSLR Core Unit can be stacked above this insert inside an Action X70, increasing capacity without requiring a separate bag.

Mirrorless or DSLR Core Unit?

Choose the Large DSLR v3-B for gripped bodies and longer telephoto lenses carried attached. The Large Mirrorless v1-B offers a shallower, lighter alternative with 12cm internal depth for non-gripped cameras and long lenses stored separately.
