## Overview

The Shimoda Core Unit Large Mirrorless is a high-capacity, shockproof modular camera insert designed for mirrorless, SLR, and non-gripped DSLR bodies up to 4.7 inches tall. It integrates seamlessly with Shimoda’s side-access backpacks, maximizing interior space while supporting long telephoto lenses up to 600mm.

## Description

Designed for adventure photographers who need maximum interior carrying volume without unnecessary bulk, the Shimoda Core Unit Large Mirrorless is a high-capacity modular padded insert built to provide shockproof protection for mirrorless, SLR, and non-gripped DSLR cameras up to 4.7 inches (12cm) tall. Engineered to integrate seamlessly with the side access of the Action X30 and Explore 30 backpacks, it maximizes the equipment carrying space of both packs while still fitting in nearly every Shimoda backpack and roller system except the Explore/Action X 25. This insert is ideal for creators who carry multiple mirrorless bodies, longer lenses like 150-600/200-600mm, and essential accessories into rugged outdoor environments where protection and organization are critical. EVA laminated dividers and sidewalls deliver superior impact resistance compared to cheaper foam systems, while an aluminum frame adds rigidity and structure for heavy expedition loads. The included lightweight removable water-resistant skin doubles as a sealed storage case at home or a versatile packing cell for travel, keeping gear dust free, organized, and ready for fast access whether shooting remote landscapes, wildlife, or demanding backcountry assignments.

- LIGHTWEIGHT MULTI-PURPOSE SKIN: Includes a removable water-resistant skin that functions as a sealed storage case for your padded insert at home, keeps gear dust free, and can also serve as a packing cell for clothing or essentials when moving between airports, basecamps, and remote shooting locations.
