Leica SL2-S New Old Stock - Fair Price?
I love my SL2-S, and it's just as relevant as it was when it was released. As for the choice, I'm sure the Leica-rehab is fine, but you'll never have the same questions about a new one.

My honest experience using Leica M cameras after years of real work
I’m in a similar position, coincidently. I use my Leicas professionally & have generally mitigated a disaster past couple years. However, a couple times now I’ve run into issues & have been let down. I went from using very sterile feeling full canon setup to Leica’s. I feel it helped me grow & impro

Switching from X-T5 to Leica SL2/SL2-S
You have identified the advantages and disadvantages correctly. This ends up being a very personal choice and you have to weigh these tradeoffs for yourself. My personal preference is limiting weight and size which puts you in Q territory. If it has to be an interchangeable lens SL, I’d go with sigm

Received my first Leica today 😢
How much did you pay for it ? it looks a bit dusty. I got my Leica sl2-s from FOTO-GÖRLITZ, last year in may was 2200 eur, with one year warranty, and the camera was mint, all cameras and lenses are excellent with high quality photos of the cameras/lenses, you pretty much buy the display cameras fro

Leica D-Lux 8, M240, M8, M10, Q? - Nepal/Himalaya visit
Have you thought about something from the SL line? I know they tend to be looked at as Leica's red headed stepchild around here but they are great cameras if you are dead set on buying a Leica. They will be a bit larger and heavier than an M or a Q but they do bring full IP54 rating for weather seal

Can someone pleeeeeeease explain the fascination with Leica cameras?
I've been a Nikon shooter for decades and a couple years ago I bought a SL2-S. Built like a tank. I loved the solid feel of the body. It reminded me of the feel the F2. But, having two systems is just stupid so I sold it. I also felt like the back button focus was janky at best. The only feature I m

Received my first Leica today 😢
I have an SL2-S that I bought new a couple months after it came out and I got the same error and shutter failure last June. Customer service was terrible. Costed $650 to replace. Am now exiting Leica for Hasselblad🤝🏼

M lenses performance on Nikon ZF vs Leica SL2-S vs Lumix S1/5 ?
I have the SL2 and ZF. The ZF has the advantage of the Nikon manual focus green-box aid, but in all other respects I prefer the SL2 for adapting lenses. The SL2 viewfinder (and the SL2-S) is significantly better than the ZF’s (which is already decent). It is higher resolution and performance with M

The Leica SL3 and Weddings
For digital at weddings, I only shoot Leica. I love it. The colors are so so good. Our files are wonderful, very malleable. I use the SL2-S + Q3 + Q3 43 + M10. However I did not like the SL2 file looks and I won't touch an SL3 because of the file eating issues. Which perhaps has been resolved, but s

I fell into the Leica trap
A Leica SL2 or SL2-S, depending on if you need resolution or ISO performance, it might not be a traditional Leica but for me it handles very simmilarly to my Q and with the M mount adapter i can use all of my M lenses, the build quality and general expirience is amazing and the reviewers who call it
