Shimoda Carry-On Roller - Blue Nights
Pickup currently unavailable at Camera West Rancho Mirage
For many adventure photographers, travel involves not only long distances in the air but seemingly longer distances walking through airport terminals. Shimoda recognizes that carrying camera gear on your back is not always a desired experience. They felt a better solution was required to make travel easier while also limiting the amount of travel related luggage.
Shimoda's solution: a Carry-On compatible roller — one that meets most airline requirements and houses Shimoda’s camera protecting Core Units and Accessory Cases. This simple-to-use system lets you transfer camera gear from roller to backpack quickly and seamlessly without ever removing gear from its protective case. This greatly reduces the amount of bulk material you travel with, while saving you a few sweaty backs, keeping your travel experience a little more positive.
Shimoda's roller is built with materials and construction techniques they developed to best meet the needs of travelers and the unpredictable environments the find themselves in. The Carbonate Ether resin-coated shell features a unique double-sided resin application process that provides incredible water resistance if you happen to get caught walking or waiting in the rain. Oversized, industry-leading YKK zippers promise durability and reliability over the life of your roller. And our wheels remain quiet when rolling around town; yet have an aggressive tread if you find yourself in less developed environments.
- International Carry-On Friendly - Shimoda's roller is sized to meet most airline carry-on requirements. Since carry-on dimensions vary by airplane size and style, and regulations are always changing, they recommend checking with your airline before flight. The Carry-On roller will ensure your gear makes it on board safely (with you) and remains protected from not only bumps but also from dishonest strangers.
- Easy Access Doctor Bag-Style Opening - The doctor opening allows wide, unobstructed access to your gear, and it maintains a small footprint whether open or closed.
- Uniquely Modular - Compatible with all of Shimoda's DSLR and Mirrorless Core Units and Accessory Cases so you can completely customize the interior layout.
- Expandable Volume - Not every mission involves the overhead compartment. Some days are local and require a little more carry volume. The Carry-On roller is built with an expandable upper section that increases the main compartment volume on demand.
- Side Panel Pockets - Each side of the bag features a full-length zippered pocket. The right side has an interior passport pocket located in an easy to reach area. The left side includes a security strap to secure a tripod.

Product information
All our shipments are fully insured. For shipments valued over $200, a direct signature will be required upon delivery.
We utilize various shipping carriers, with FedEx Express being our primary choice for 2-Day and Overnight shipping within the US, as well as International deliveries.
We accept returns within 14 days of delivery, subject to a restocking fee of up to 15%. This fee is not for profit, but to cover the costs associated with selling an item. Each return is evaluated individually, and we strive to minimize this fee. In many instances, we waive it entirely if the refund credit can be applied towards another item in the store.
Please note, all returned items must be in the condition in which they were shipped. If the items are returned in a different condition, we will not be able to accept them.
We highly recommend visiting us in person to experience our fine photographic tools before deciding which tool best fits your needs. Please note that our inventory is distributed among our three stores, and what you see online may be at any of these locations. Below are a few points that we’d like to make in order to meet your needs for in store pick up.
The location of each item is indicated online. For convenience, you can choose to pick up your item at any of our stores. Once purchased, the item should be ready for pick up within 4 hours at the designated store, although this might vary depending on the store's busyness and time of day. We request that you wait for a notification from us confirming that your order is ready for pick up, to ensure the best service.
If your chosen item is not available at your preferred store, we can transfer it there after purchase. If you want to pick up an item at a different store, select that store for pick up during checkout, or choose a regular shipping method and let us know your preferred pick up store via support@camerawest.com or by responding to your order confirmation email.
For any questions about in-store pick up, please email support@camerawest.com. We'll do our best to accommodate your needs.
We offer a concierge trade-in program for the gear you'd like to upgrade, cross-grade, or simply pass on to a new owner. This enables you to acquire the tools that fit your specific needs. The easiest way to trade is to bring your gear into one of our stores and meet with us in person. However, we also accommodate those who can't visit our stores. Our online process is both personal and simple.
To begin, fill out the form on our Trade // Sell page with the details of the fine photographic equipment or watches you'd like to trade in. One of our team members will then contact you to confirm any details we might need for an accurate estimate. We will provide an estimate that doesn’t only look at the value of your trade in but the whole picture of where you want to go. If the estimate is satisfactory to you, we can provide a shipping label for you to ship your gear to one of our stores for a final inspection and store credit. Finally, we apply that credit towards your new gear!
