A photographer?s dream

This core unit will make my life easier when out in the field. Can configure in multiple ways and is very spacious.

Great for photography gears.

The core unit is great. There are some metals in it so the gear won’t move on the go.

Shimoda core was nuts are super flexible!

All Shimoda bags are amazing and I love the core units! I can preconfigure the single core units I have and swap them out based on what kind of shoot I’m going on!

Great part, lives up to the quality and thoughtfulness of the rest of the Shimoda system

I use two of these in my Shinoda Explore 60. It's really meant for the Shimoda system. I've also got a Manfrotto medium size backpack and this doesn't fit in it -- too deep. Got the small unit because two of them allows for the most configuration options in a Shimoda bag. Great quality and trim wall parts. Strong velcro. Waterproof on its own which is nice to have.

Shimoda Medium Core Unit with Removable Skin, Parisian Night

The Shimoda Medium Core Unit with Removable Skin, Parisian Night is the best with my 40 L bag!

Camera Inserts are an amazing modular development for camera bags, but previous designs have suffered from limited uses as well as excess weight and materials. Most insert designs force you into a single size choice that often leads to numerous expensive purchases of different sized inserts to satisfy various packing needs.

We rethought modular camera inserts
Shimoda offers multi-configurable Core Units in Small and Medium sizes. Used alone or in combination, they allow for side, rear and top access configurations. Our 2-size system offers over 10 insert configurations to customize the amount of camera and adventure gear for the day ahead of you. Shimoda Core Units are constructed with compression molded EVA sidewalls and dividers providing optimal protection without excess weight or materials.

Additionally, each Shimoda Core Unit features a removable Skin, which can be used in the following ways:

• A sealed dust-free storage case when is your camera gear is not in use
• A packing cell for an added layer of organization for loose items like clothing, food and safety equipment
• A convenient, lightweight shoulder bag (with camera insert) for a quick hike out of basecamp or a walk around a new city
