Product Summary
Take your photography further with a backpack that pairs the carrying comfort of a technical hiking pack with modular camera protection. The Helios combines an adjustable ergonomic harness, supportive internal frame and load lifters with an expandable 30-40L roll-top, so camera equipment, clothing, food and outdoor essentials all travel together.
Add a Medium or Large Core Camera Cube for padded, configurable camera storage with rear and side access. Recycled Challenge ECOPAK fabric, 17 pockets, dedicated tripod storage and a lifetime warranty make it a practical choice for photography adventures, hiking and travel.
Hiking-Pack Comfort for Longer Days with Camera Gear
A five-point adjustable harness adapts to different body shapes and sizes, with 150 mm of shoulder strap height adjustment and tensionable shoulder and chest straps for a secure, personal fit.
An internal ABS frame sheet and formed steel wire structure improve stability, while upper load lifters draw the pack closer to your body. The removable padded waist belt transfers weight onto your hips, and perforated materials with EVA padding keep air moving against your back. At 1.8 kg, it is a supportive carry for demanding outdoor use.
Expandable Roll-Top
The adjustable roll-top grows from 30L to 40L, giving you extra room for clothing, food and outdoor essentials when a day out becomes a longer one. Multiple closure configurations suit everything from a compact photography kit to a fuller load.
Modular Protection and Access
Choose between the Medium and Large Core Camera Cubes, both with configurable padded interiors that work with the rear and side access openings. The Medium Cube provides 10L of dedicated camera storage and leaves more room for personal belongings. The Large Cube raises capacity to 14L, accommodating more camera equipment while occupying more of the main compartment.
The full-length rear opening lets the pack lie flat for easy access, while the side opening makes it quicker to reach a camera without unpacking everything. Medium and Large Sets add the matching cube and a Stratus Rain Cover for a complete carrying system.
17 Pockets and Dedicated Equipment Storage
A front slip pocket with adjustable compression straps takes extra layers, and a concealed zip pocket keeps small valuables close. Dual side pockets hold bottles up to 1L, and an internal sleeve fits a 16-inch laptop or hydration bladder, with a dedicated pass-through for the hose.
External retention straps and drawcords secure a tripod without using space inside the main compartment.
Weather-Resistant Recycled Construction
The outer shell is durable 100% recycled 400D Challenge ECOPAK polyester with a 70D ripstop backing and C0 durable water-repellent coating. PU-coated zips add protection against the elements, and the lining and webbing also use recycled materials.
The ECOPAK fabric itself is waterproof, but the complete backpack is weather-resistant rather than fully waterproof. A compatible Stratus Rain Cover is available separately for heavy rain.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it include a Camera Cube?
No. This is the standalone backpack. Cubes are sold separately, or you can choose a Helios set that includes a cube and rain cover.
Which Camera Cube should I choose?
The 10L Medium Cube leaves more room for clothing and personal belongings, while the 14L Large Cube gives extra space for camera bodies, lenses and accessories. The right choice depends on your kit and how much non-photography storage you need.
Can I use it without a Camera Cube?
Yes. The main compartment works as a regular hiking and travel pack for clothing, outdoor equipment and essentials.
Is it waterproof?
Not entirely. The fabric is waterproof, but the complete backpack is weather-resistant, so the Stratus Rain Cover is the answer for heavy rain.
