DEEP DIVE | ORIGAMI CAMERA CORE (TM) BENEFITS
Atlas Packs have a sewn-in camera core that cannot be removed. The reason(s) weight distribution, space savings and efficiency when compared to traditional camera bags with ICU's and camera cubes. You get full access to your gear without a zipper getting in the way. We call our solution the Origami Camera Core (TM) and because our core it sewn-in, you can easily change how much space you allocate between the camera and camping sections. Each pack has a different size Origami Camera Core (TM) rated to hold and secure different types of gear.
ADVENTURE vs. ATHLETE CAMERA GEAR

ADVENTURE PACK
SEE HOWORIGAMI CAMERA CORE (TM)
DEPTH: 7-8" | Traditional Depth
ORIGAMI FOLDS: Double Fold
LITERS FOR CAMERA: | 6, 13, 20-----
The Adventure Pack is our larger pack, both in terms of depth and
overall liters. Inside the Adventure we have a double fold Origami
Camera Core (TM) and can be positioned to hold 6, 13 or 20 liters of camera gear. The depth of the Adventure Pack is very similar to a traditional camera bags.
The Adventure Pack opens to the side so you have full access to all of your gear -
ATHLETE PACK
LEARN MOREORIGAMI CAMERA CORE (TM)
DEPTH: 5-6" | Shallow Depth
ORIGAMI FOLDS: Single Fold
LITERS FOR CAMERA: | 7, 10-----
The Athlete Pack has a single fold Origami Camera Core (TM) and can be adjusted between 7 & 10 liters. One of the key differences between the Athlete Pack and traditional camera bags is the shallow depth. Please expect your gear to fit tight and this is by design.
When closed, the lid will hit the top of lenses and bodies that are taller than 5.5" / 14cm. This is normal. Slightly taller gear (up to 6"/15.5cm) also fits as long as you organize and pack well.More details as well as photos are available via the link below.

Captured from a live stream | This video takes a deep dive into how each of the packs and frame heights function for both daily use and travel. Important to understand if you are a frequent traveler and looking to get a shorter length frame for carry-on.

ATHLETE CAMPING | 10 - 30 LITERS
The Athlete Pack has a single-fold Origami Camera Core (TM) that shifts about 3 liters of space between the front and back of the pack. When compressed down, the Athlete Pack is about 20 liters and the camping / camera sections are basically split 50/50.
In terms of hiking, think of the Athlete Pack like a day pack that can be expanded out. When you head out you have on more layers so you pack is not as full. As you walk you get warmer and start to shed layers and need to work out of your pack. At 20 liters there is plenty of space for lunch, a few layers, tech
pouch and even a laptop plus more. -
ADVENTURE CAMPING | 30 - 44 LITERS
The Adventure Pack has a double fold Origami Camera Core (TM) *prior generations had a single fold. Having two folds means even more room for camping or camera gear.
The Adventure Pack can be setup to have up to 30 liters for camping with maximum camera gear. As you shift the folds, the ratios change and camping gets larger while camera storage gets smaller.
One of the main reasons you get the Adventure Pack is because you need to pack food. The front side of the Adventure Pack is both incredibly deep and wide and perfect for bear canisters and large sets of camping gear.
