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

Go with a Leica SL3 or X2D2?

The X2D2 has really good ibis compared to previous gens thanks to DJI's involvement with the brand. As for iq, people have mentioned that the SL line does give the "medium format look" but imo if you NEED the medium format look then get a medium format camera. However, if you are being paid for your

SL2S vs SL3 for M adaption

The 3 and the m11 will render nearly identically, it’s the same sensor, along with the Q3 series. This sensor is also found in Sony’s 60 megapixel offerings. If you like it on your M, you’ll love it on the SL3. I don’t buy into a sensor rendering something “more” or “less” better, it all has to do w

SL3

Apo is definitely worth it, especially for the SL system. But if you already have a Summilux lens, try Leica’s M-to-L adapter first before investing in other high-end lenses. If the Summilux-M is sufficient, just buy a 28–70 zoom lens, which is also excellent. I also moved from the Sony system to th

Does the SL series cameras feel the same?

I have a SL2, I have not owned a M or Q, I do have some film gear, have shot film rangefinders, and I shot GFX prior. In my opinion, part of what makes a Rangefinder like the Leica M great is the restraint it gives you. This means being able to focus in on composition rather than getting lost in the

Ratlos bei der Kamera wahl

Die Frage ist zunächst: Wieso Hasselblad bzw Leica? Für den Look? Für's 'haben'? Technisch gesehen sind diese Kameras zwar sehr gut und überdecken rein rechnernisch den MFT Sensor der OM, allerdings hast du auf Insta und Co nichts davon. Wenn du wirklich in den großformatigen Print gehen möchtest, w

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

Which Leica camera best complements a Q2 for travel and everyday documentary photography?

I have a Q3 28, an M6, a Canon R5 II, and a Ricoh GR IV Monochrome. They each fill a specific niche for my photography needs. I fully understand your desire to add something else. I’d find the Q3 alone to be too limiting. If I go to a sports event or my daughter’s dance performances, I need the Cano

Lens Recs for Pro Photographer Switching from Fuji to Nikon

You should check SL3 is mind blowing and so are their primes. AF is now better than Fuji and in pair with Nikon - besides sports though. For primes, that’s the way to go dude: you’re getting premium Sigma A and Leica glass. I’d be particularly interested in what you think about 135/1.4 and 200/2 Onl

Leica must make a Q inspired L-mount camera

No. I have both a SL3-S and the CL and regularly shoot on the CL. You get a 1.5X crop due to the APS-C, but I prefer to shoot the CL over the SL3-S for wildlife as the crop gives me the extra reach. I've never felt the CL lacking. The autofocus is pretty good, especially with bright lenses. I use a
