Honest review of the Leica SL3 and SL-lenses

I own and SL3, 24-70 leica lens, and 50mm apo lens. I'm not an influencer. The reason I use the SL3 is because it's a Leica and I like what I get out of Leica from a user experience and end result stand point. The build quality, the interface, the settings, the ease of use, it gets out of the way an

Help me choose

I have the907X 100C, which I bought primarily so I could use the back on my 501 and 503. I also own a Leica SL3, Q3 and an M10 Monochrom. The Q3 is an everyday carry. The SL3 is an amazing shooting experience and one that surprised me when I first got it. Both have colors to drool over. My 907X and

Leica SL3 owners, what justifies the 7k price tag for you?

I was a career photojournalist for nearly 30 years and used mostly Canon equipment. The gear was fantastic but after I left the industry, I developed a fascination for Leica cameras and particularly the Q3. I love the simplicity and size and performance. But then I had an itch for an SL camera. The

Has anyone moved from the Leica SL3 to the X2d ii?

I made this exact move… If you only use the sl3 for stills, it’s a no brainer. If you use it as a hybrid at all for video, you’ll have to fill that gap. I sold my sl3 apo35/50 sl and got a lumix s5ii with the Leica 24-70 2.8, and have not looked back. Bonus points for the lumix getting 99.5% of the

Leica SL3-S as main camera?

SL3 is my semi-main in that it’s the one I want to grab unless I need to shoot sports. It’s my favourite camera. Compared to the M though keep in mind it’s going to be much bigger and less discrete. But if you’re looking for Leica experience and interchangeable lenses, with AF - you won’t be disappo

Does the SL series cameras feel the same?

Great answer! After all, what is the “Leica” feeling? I shoot an M because I enjoy the lack of features, I want this minimalist approach in my personal photography. Because of my love for the M system I was considering switching to the SL3 for my professional work, and as a part of this I arranged a

SL2 or A7RIV?

α7rIV. SL2 files at 800 ISO make it tough. Shooting low light is a challenge. The design and ergonomic of it is only rivaled by SL3. Despite the poor low light performance, poor battery, and contrast detection autofocus challenges compared to α7rIV I enjoy holding and shooting SL2 more… The image qu

Thoughts on Leica SL3-S?

In real world experience it’s just work so there is not much about to say by reviewers. The AF is fast enough for flying birds so it’s pretty good. The body is a bit smaller but still enough room for big hand like me. The battery is shared with Leica Q and it’s can be work while charging with power

Brand New SL3 Test Run: Unedited

I took a dedicated weekend trip to my nearest Leica store (about 5 hours drive away) as I’d arranged a 48 hour loan of the SL3 to test it as a possible next system for my studio. I’m very experienced with mirrorless, having used Fujifilm since the X-T1 was released, and now with the X-H2. The store
