Leica SL3-S Mirrorless Camera with 24-70mm f/2.8 Lens Kit

The Leica SL3-S Mirrorless Cameraarrives with a bundle of features that continue to prove the brand's Midas touch. At the core of this release is the hybrid autofocus system and its 24 MP full-frame BSI CMOS sensor, which supports continuous shooting at up to 30 frames per second with full autofocus, making it the fastest Leica ever built. The video capabilities are equally impressive, providing unlimited 6K Open Gate internal recording while utilizing the full size of the sensor in its native 3:2 aspect ratio. Securely protected by an IP54-certified solid all-metal body and credentials technology in accordance with the Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI), the SL3-S covers all bases.

Spearheading this launch is the 24MP full-frame BSI CMOS sensor with fast PDAF. When combined with the Maestro IV processor and 8GB of buffer memory it provides exceptional low-light performance and incredible color output at a file size ideal for sharing, making the SL3-S a powerful asset for a diverse amount of shooting situations. This system allows for DNG and JPEG format at 24MP and handheld multishot modes at 48 and 96MP.

This system's video capabilities were meant to match its photo counterpart, with unlimited 6K Open Gate internal recording the user gains new creative possibilities when it comes to postproduction while using the full size of the sensor in its native 3:2 ratio. Additionally, this upgrade offers:

5.9K RAW external recording provides the best post-production flexibility, offering malleable files with incredible dynamic range and color grading support. Additionally, you can now use larger storage options thanks to SSD recording via USB-C.

Complementing this camera's powerful sensor is a 5-axis sensor-shift image stabilization IBIS system that provides up to 5 stops of shake reduction, allowing you to capture sharper handheld images. The SL3-S EyeRes viewfinder is equipped with an optical system of glass lenses display that clearly displays the subjects with up to 120 images per second and a resolution of 5.76m-dot.

The SL3-S is the first camera in the SL system with Leica Content Credentials and dedicated CAI-compliant hardware. You can have each image signed with tamperproof metadata and receive access to verification tools that provide content, production, and editing process history.

Spanning a popular and versatile range of focal lengths, the Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-70mm f/2.8 ASPH. Lens from Leica is designed for full-frame L-mount mirrorless cameras. Ranging from wide-angle to portrait length, this lens provides excellent sharpness across all f-stops and focus distances, and three aspherical elements greatly reduce chromatic aberrations and distortions for notable image sharpness and clarity. The lens's f/2.8 maximum aperture benefits working in a variety of lighting conditions while offering precise control over focus position for working with shallow depth of field techniques, and a quiet and precise autofocus motor benefits both stills and video capture. Well-suited for nearly any photographic application, the lens offers lighter weight thanks to the omission of OIS, and this compact workhorse is constructed with a metal body and weather-sealing for durability and protection in harsh environments and inclement weather conditions.
