Easy, reduced, functional - Leica professional
The Leica SL (Typ 601) represents the pinnacle of design and technology from Leica Camera and is the perfect tool for professionals. Featuring a full-frame, self-cleaning 24 megpixel CMOS sensor, the SL offers the highest possible image quality with the fewest compromises. An integrated 4.4 megapixel electronic viewfinder with 0.8x magnification gives a huge field of view and a bright, crisp overview of the scene. Auto focus speed is class-leading. As an interchangeable lens mirrorless camera, the SL is packed with advanced features such as full weather and dust sealing, a touch-screen rear LCD, Wi-Fi and GPS, dual SD card slots, 4k video, 11 fps burst rate and a versatile lens mount. In addition to the new line of full-frame Leica L lenses, the SL (Typ 601) accepts Leica TL-System lenses natively (and automatically crops to an APS-C mode). Leica M, S, R, and cine lenses can be mounted with various adapters.

With its full-frame CMOS sensor, the Leica SL sets new standards in professional camera systems category thanks to the combination of outstanding speed and unrivaled optical performance. With the fastest auto-focus in its class and the exceptional Leica image quality, photographers always achieve brilliant imaging results - in still images and in 4k video.

Made in Germany, the Leica SL is milled from aluminum and the Leica SL lenses have the water repellent Aqua Dura coating. In addition to the SL lenses, the Leica SL can be used with other Leica lenses (S, R, M, T & Cine PL mount) and 3rd party lenses via adapters even for video applications, making it ideal for any photographic situation.

Craftsmanship and Design
The body of the Leica SL is machined from two solid blocks of aluminum and hand-finished to create a unique piece of work. The material used in the construction of the Leica SL guarantees exceptional endurance. The Leica SL and its lenses are sealed against dust and water. This ensures that the SL system is reliable under the toughest conditions.

Video Recording 
The Leica SL allows video recordings in FullHD & 4k for professional movie footage. It offers 1080p @ up to 120 fps, 4k (UHD) @ 30 fps & 4k (cine) @ 24 fps. The Leica SL records high-quality moving pictures on the internal SD cards in 4:2:0 8 bit. The HDMI delivers 4:2:2 10 bit for external recorders. With the PL Adapters, the cinematographer can use the Leica Summicron-C and Leica Summilux-C Cine lenses.

WiFi, SL App
The Leica SL has an integrated WiFi module.The Leica SL App is available as a free download from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store The App allows the user to remotely control the camera via a phone or tablet. The user will be able to set the shutter speed and aperture and capture the scene via the tablet or phone. This makes it easy to shoot remotely from unusual angles.

24-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor
The Leica SL has a 24-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor. The newly developed processor from the Leica Maestro II series processes the data arriving from the sensor with such speed that it allows continuous shooting at a rate of 11 frames per second at full resolution, much faster than other comparable cameras.

Leica SL Lenses
The Leica SL lenses are full-frame AF lenses designed for professional needs. With the highest image performance at every aperture and distance, the new Leica SL autofocus is the fastest AF available for full-frame system cameras. The SL lenses are silent and offer precise AF. All SL lenses have an AquaDura hydrophobic coating on the outer lens elements. The lenses are sealed to protect from dust and water.

Looking to sell your Used Leica SL (Typ 601) Mirrorless Digital Camera Black?

Our Verdict

There are a lot of things you come to expect from a Leica camera, and obviously their premium branding commands certain expectations. The Leica SL has all of those fundamental Leica-isms. The build quality is extremely high, the styling is exceptional with barely a dial or button out of place, and the components are to the highest standard.

While looks aren't going to make great camera s, the Leica SL has plenty on board to prove that beauty is also skin deep. With a 35mm full frame 24 Megapixel CMOS sensor and Maestro II processor providing a 2 GB buffer to maximise image quality from a technical perspective, the SL mount lenses do it from an optical one.The ultra versatile 24-90mm f/2.8-4 is the first in the SL mount line up, with more on the way. Although the SL works with SL mount lenses, it is also compatible with Leica T lenses (activating a 10 Megapixel APS-C crop mode), and through the use of adaptors will work with Leica S, Leica R and the eponymous Leica M mount range of lenses.

EVFs are becoming more commonplace in digital photography, especially since the quality improvements through the years have justified their inclusion as a viable replacement for the standard optical variety. The Electronic viewfinder on the SL takes that argument up yet another notch by outputting a rather impressive 4.4-Million pixels to the eye of the beholder. The rear LCD still has its place, with the 2.95 inch one on the Leica SL having touch capabilities, and 170 degree tiltability.

Image capture is also bolstered by an autofocus system that at launch was touted as the fastest in a full-frame system camera , as well as 11 frame per second continuous shooting mode. Video capture is also packing some power in the form of 1080p capture at 120fps and 4K at 30fps.

Showpiece features are joined by a massive range of great functionality in the addition of integrated Wi-Fi and GPS, ultrasonic sensor cleaning, dual SD card slots, weather sealed body and a whole host of accessories tailor made for this aesthetically delightful camera .
