To everyone who told me I needed an SL…

Yes, my SL2-S is my favourite Leica, brilliant with af lenses, wonderful with manual focus, that screen is amazing.

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.

I fell into the Leica trap

For your situation I'd sum it up in this way from best to worst scenario:Q2 -> SL2-S -> MThe Q is a wonderful camera which will certainly make you considering an M in future.The SL line is a great middle ground where you can both use expensive anc cheap lenses from various manufacturers. Don't disre

Ereditati da mio papà ,adoro il B/N ma vorrei anche una a colori cosa prendere ? Le ottiche le tengo tutte o no?

Per il colore ti suggerisco un corpo COMPLETAMENTE diverso, tipo una Leica SL2-S.Saprebbe valorizzare ciascuna di quelle ottiche, soprattutto le più lunghe e luminose.MAI vendere le ottiche!!!Prima o poi te ne pentiresti, garantito.

TTL flash on M10/M11, what are people actually using?

Flash on Leica: a subject that’s always on my mind. I have different solutions for different Leicas. For starters, current Leica-branded flashes are a huge disappointment. Through much trial and error I find that the only Leica-branded flash that works on the M-10, M-11 and SL2s is the near-vintage

My first Leica 🥹

Congrats!... My first Leica was the orginal Q, and I've beaten it to death over the last 9 years, and I still love it. Sprang for an SL2s + 50 sumicron and I love that as well. Once you bond with Leica, there really is no other alternative IMHO.

Q typ 116 or dlux8

if Leica (colors, results, haptics) is what you prefer, would you be willing to compromise on size? Leica SL 601 is still a very relevant camera today. The issue on it possibly on the buttons, not the EVF/screen as mentioned previously. Then, if you are lucky enough, a beater SL2s could be about the

what are your guys opinion on the leica q 116?

Great camera. I had one, added an SL2–S, then traded both on a Q3. The Typ 116 is definitely in “gateway drug” territory. Downside: the 28mm lens is limiting, especially if you’re coming from interchangeable lens cameras. Upside: that 28mm lens is also the finest optic I’ve shot with. It’s astoundin

Need opinions & advice

As someone who made the jump from A7 bodies to the SL2-S, it's a very different, better experience. The UI is head and shoulders better on the SL, and there's a consciousness to the design that is missing on most other non-Leica digital bodies.

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
