For creators and photographers who work beyond the studio, it’s not good enough to get ready for a shoot – you always need to be ready. The magic moment doesn’t wait for you, just because your gear isn’t prepared.
That’s why SmallRig has designed the ultimate shooting backpack so that, from city to wild, you’re always ready to create. It has also assembled the EDC PRO and EDC GO systems for outdoor content creators and independent photographers. Far from just a collection of accessories, these are carefully curated workflow solutions that have been developed through real-world shooting experience to make sure you’re prepared for spontaneous creative opportunities.
These are professional creator workflows designed to help you stay ready for the next shot – and they’re built around one key piece of equipment…
Modular storage that’s comfortable to carry
From wedding photographers to urban videographers to hybrid shooters working across multiple locations, the key to any mobile workflow is a customizable camera bag. It needs to be large enough to carry the kit, but comfortable enough to carry all day. It needs to be versatile enough to adapt to any adventure, but reliable enough to withstand any weather while keeping your gear safe and secure.
The SmallRig Outra 25 Camera Backpack offers the ultimate solution for creators of all kinds. Designed for photographers and videographers who work in the field, this customizable 25L bag includes adjustable dividers and a trio of storage bags (small, medium and large pouches that stick to the back panel or clip to your waist) that add an additional 4L capacity – enabling you to carry everything you need, no matter the job. There’s even a dedicated slot for your 360 camera selfie stick for easy tiny planet creation.
Need aerial shots? Pack a camera, three lenses and a drone. Are you an action shooter? Add two cameras, four lenses and an action cam to your loadout. It even fits assembled gimbals and stabilizers!
The SmallRig Outra 25 Camera Backpack accommodates your needs, with removable divider baffles and adjustable Velcro panels, a zippered compartment and elasticated mesh compartments, along with dedicated battery compartments and a laptop sleeve for your power and editing essentials. There’s also strap storage for your smartphone as well as strap mounts for rapid access to your accessories.
The enviable 33lbs / 15kg maximum capacity means you can carry everything you need, but a load-reducing system splits the load – employing padded straps, lumbar support and a load-distributing belt to ensure even distribution and zero strain.
As an all-day system, comfort is a top priority. Adjustable shoulder straps fit any height, with an S-curve design for a stable and comfortable carry, while the chest strap offers height and width adjustment to provide the best fit. Neck support is offered, with thickened pads that follow your curvature, along with 1.2in / 3cm lumbar support that conforms to your waist to reduce equipment sway. Finally, a 4.3in / 11cm belt delivers even weight distribution – and the back panel boasts a custom-made sweat-wicking material so that your body can breathe under the load.
The SmallRig Outra 25 Camera Backpack offers easy access on the fly, whatever you need. That means rapid top and side access, magnetic snap panels and tripod strap, quick access to the interior storage bag or the outside-mounted storage pouches, along with a belt that boasts a pocket, stabilizer mount and quick release system for accessories. There’s even a whistle for emergencies.
Sturdiness and security is a major concern for any mobile shooter, but the SmallRig Outra 25 Camera Backpack handles all conditions with its 420D outer fabric that repels water and resists abrasion, and a bottom made of ballistic nylon to deliver durability even in the toughest environments. To keep your kit protected, the main compartment features a locking buckle, with a secondary YKK lockable zipper, supported by a concealed back zipper and a hidden AirTag slot to give you peace of mind wherever you are.
A complete one-person production workflow
Independent photographers and filmmakers need a one-bag workflow that delivers fast deployment, data security and rapid repacking. So you can say goodbye to lost files or looking unprofessional due to gear chaos; the EDC PRO system makes professional shoots manageable whether you’re capturing weddings, events, documentaries or commercial projects. The centerpiece of this kit is the SmallRig Outra 25 Camera Backpack, but it’s supported by a field-tested equipment loadout that covers you for any shooting situation.
This includes the SmallRig SC36 EDC Power Bank, enabling you to carry precisely the power you need. It’s the perfect power bank for creators; no more waiting for a charge, just swap the cell and you’re back to full power in three seconds. And it’s light enough to clip anywhere, delivering capacity on your terms and keeping you powered while you move.
The SmallRig S70 wireless microphone ensures that you can capture professional audio on the go, with the SmallRig Mini EDC Flashlight and SmallRig 16-in-1 Pocket Tool Kit keeping you ready for any eventuality while working in the field.
The EDC PRO kit also features essential extras like the SmallRig CT-10 Aluminum Camera Tripod – an adjustable 71-inch 2-in-1 tripod and monopod, with a 360° ballhead and 33 lbs / 15 kg payload that adapts to almost any mobile shooting situation. The SmallRig Camera Battery Charger Kit is a compact and fast-charging dock, which is more than just a charger – it’s a power bank for your batteries. And the SmallRig Memory Card Case for SD and MicroSD gives you a quick-draw stowage solution for up to nine cards, in a super-slim form factor with anti-fall and scratch resistance.
A grab-and-shoot system for content creators
Tailor-made for outdoor content creators using action cameras, the EDC GO system ensures that you’ll never miss the moment because your gear isn’t ready.
Whether you’re shooting with DJI, Insta360 or GoPro gear, EDC GO gives you grab-and-go readiness, all-day power and lightweight portability for travel, hiking, cycling, camping and all kinds of outdoor creation.
Again, the SmallRig SC36 EDC Power Bank gives you customizable capacity with instant top-up capability, enabling you to carry exactly the power you need with reloadable cells that make waiting for charges a thing of the past.
While your action cam delivers the goods with video, it can’t be relied on for audio. That’s why the EDC GO also includes the SmallRig S70 wireless microphone, delivering pro-level audio capture so that your content sounds as great as it looks. And the SmallRig SD Memory Card Reader ensures that you’re never stuck in a situation where you can’t access your content; with dual SD and microSD compatibility and MagSafe attachment, your files are always at-hand and accessible.
However, as any mobile creator knows, sometimes it’s not the capturing kit itself that you really need in the field; you need tools that enable you to work with your kit and get the shot. The SmallRig Mini EDC Flashlight clips to your hat, enabling you to see what’s in front of you when conditions deteriorate, and it also clips to your backpack or bicycle to provide visibility.
The final piece of the puzzle is the SmallRig 16-in-1 Pocket Tool Kit, which is absolutely invaluable when creating on the go. With a series of Allen (H2, H.25, H3 and H4), flathead, PH1 and SL5 wrenches, you’ll always be able to configure your rigs, cages, tripods and mounts. Add in other useful tools like scissors, wire cutters, pliers and even a bottle opener, you’ll never be without a solution whether you’re wrestling with cable ties or refreshments at the end of your shoot.
“Built with creators, verified by creators”
SmallRig has over a decade of camera accessory expertise and feedback from millions of creators worldwide.
