## Overview

The Shimoda Core Unit Small DSLR is a modular, EVA-protected camera insert designed for mirrorless or DSLR bodies with lenses up to 70-200mm f/2.8. It offers customizable configurations with rear, side, and top access, maximizing protection while minimizing bulk. The included multi-purpose water-resistant Skin doubles as a storage case, packing cell, and shoulder bag, making it ideal for outdoor photographers who need flexible, rugged gear protection backed by a 5-year warranty.

## Description

Mirrorless/DSLR Camera Fit - Designed to hold a mirrorless or non-gripped DSLR body with a mounted lens up to 70-200mm 2.8. It can optionally hold 2-3 lenses and accessories. Modular Configurations - Core Units allow for side, rear and top access configurations, and they can be mixed and matched to increase or decrease camera capacity as needed. This system ensures you never carry more padding and weight than absolutely necessary to protect the day’s camera kit, and that all remaining pack space can be dedicated to clothing and personal gear. Lightweight Water-Resistant & Multi-purpose Skin - The included Skin’s primary function is a storage case for the padded Core Units, ideal for when your gear is at home and not in use. It keeps the Core Unit sealed and dust free. Its secondary function is to use as a packing cell. A user can fill it with clothing or other common items and pack it in their backpack or carry-on roller. The Small Skin includes an adjustable strap to use it as a convenient, lightweight shoulder bag for a quick hike out of basecamp or a walk around a new city. EVA Protective Shell and Dividers - Walls and dividers are constructed with EVA which ensures much greater protection than cheaper PE foams used in most camera bags. With EVA we have greater control over the density and quality of materials used to protect your gear. It also means our walls can be thinner and use less internal volume while still providing superior protection. Minimalist Construction - The Jersey exterior shell and Tricot lining are laminated to the EVA. By tightening up and simplifying the design in this way, we can eliminate any sloppiness and movement with dividers. The shape of the actual divider tabs has a unique inward taper. This simple concept makes setting up and adjusting the Core Unit much easier by limiting the catching of the fastener and the pulling on the sidewall material. Read More Overview The Small Core Unit is a simple insert with a multitude of uses. It is designed to be used on its own or in combination with up to three additional Core Units to expand the amount of protected equipment space in a Shimoda pack or roller as more camera gear is needed. Breaking down the equipment protection into modules allows the user to minimize weight and bulk and to never carry more padded sections than is needed for the day’s camera kit. The inserts can be configured to allow simultaneous rear, side and top access to the camera kit, and to customize the bag to a user’s shooting style and the terrain ahead of them. The Small Core Unit includes a multi-purpose skin designed to be light and packable. The Skin’s primary function is as a storage case for the padded Core Unit. When gear is at home and not in use, the skin keeps it sealed inside the Core Unit and dust free. Its secondary function is as a packing cell. A user can fill it with clothing or other common items and pack it in their backpack or carry-on roller. The third function is to act as a shoulder bag, allowing a camera kit to be packed into the Small Core Unit and carried on a quick hike out of basecamp or a casual walk around a city while traveling.

## Features

- MODULAR CAMERA STORAGE: Use alone or combine with additional Core Units to expand protected space inside Shimoda packs, allowing photographers to carry only the padding needed for the day while maximizing remaining room for outdoor essentials. Storing the Small DSLR Core Unit on top of a Medium DSLR Core Unit gives users roughly the same total storage volume as the Large DSLR Core Unit, but with the added benefit of more modular configuration options, especially since the Small DSLR Core Unit can be carried like a shoulder bag.
- MULTI-ACCESS CONFIGURATIONS: Supports rear, side, and top access layouts so your camera kit can be reached quickly in changing terrain, improving workflow efficiency for landscape, wildlife, and expedition photography shoots.
- EVA IMPACT PROTECTION: Walls and dividers constructed from high-quality EVA deliver stronger protection than standard foam inserts while remaining thinner and lighter, helping keep camera bodies, lenses, and accessories secure during rugged travel.
- 5-YEAR WARRANTY: Covered by Shimoda’s long-term warranty support, ensuring confidence for photographers who rely on rugged equipment protection through harsh weather, travel-heavy schedules, and high-demand professional adventure environments.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect addition to my medium mirrorles core unit.
*by D***D on March 5, 2025*

Perfect addition to my medium mirrorles core unit.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Great item wrong color.
*by R***Y on April 4, 2026*

I did not like the color. Bright off color green

### ⭐⭐⭐ Great quality, but too pricey for what it is
*by H***A on September 16, 2025*

I bought the small cube for my X30 backpack, however, it does not fit well compared to my medium cube. For some reason, this insert is much taller, which causes a weird bulge in my backpack. Build quality is great, what you would expect from Shimoda, but it’s pricey for what it is. Granted, it does come with plenty of dividers and an additional bag with a zipper and loop holes that can technically convert this into a sling if you needed. If you just need a small cube insert, a cheaper option might suit you better. Let’s just say if I had a chance to go back, I wouldn’t have purchased it.
