Leica SL3-P with Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-70mm f/2.8 and Vario-Elmarit-SL 70-200mm f/2.8 ASPH. Lens

The Leica SL3-P features a full-frame CMOS sensor with 45.8MP total resolution and 44.9MP effective resolution, delivering exceptional image quality with impressive detail and clarity. Paired with the Leica Maestro IV processor, the camera supports DNG and JPG image formats with up to 14-bit colour depth for rich tonal gradation and professional imaging workflows. The absence of a low-pass filter helps maximise sharpness, while the integrated RGB colour filter and UV/IR filter contribute to accurate colour reproduction.

Advanced Image Stabilisation and Autofocus System

Built for precision shooting, the Leica SL3-P incorporates 5-axis image stabilisation with compensation of up to 5 stops, helping reduce the effects of camera shake during handheld photography. Its hybrid autofocus system combines contrast detection, depth mapping and phase detection technologies, supported by 819 phase-detection points and 315 contrast-detection points. Advanced subject recognition includes detection modes for humans, animals and vehicles, enabling reliable focus tracking across a wide range of shooting scenarios.

Professional Video Recording Capabilities

The Leica SL3-P supports professional-grade video production with recording options in Rec. 709 and Rec. 2020 colour spaces, including L-Log and HLG gamma profiles. Users can record in 8-bit or 10-bit formats directly to SD or CFexpress Type B media, while 10-bit output is available via HDMI 2.1. Recording times are determined by storage capacity and sensor temperature, with typical recording durations of approximately 20 minutes in 8K/30fps, 25 minutes in 6K/30fps and 30 minutes in 4K/30fps at 25°C.

High-Resolution EVF and Touchscreen Display

Composing and reviewing content is enhanced by a high-resolution electronic viewfinder featuring 5.76 million dots, refresh rates of up to 120fps and 100% frame coverage. The camera also includes a 3.2-inch touchscreen LCD with 2.33 million dots, anti-fingerprint coating and anti-scratch protection for intuitive operation. A 1.28-inch monochrome top display provides quick access to essential shooting information while maintaining excellent visibility in various lighting conditions.

Durable Construction and Professional Connectivity

Constructed from magnesium and aluminium with a leatherette covering, the Leica SL3-P features a robust full-metal body with IP54-rated protection against dust and splash water. The camera incorporates the Leica L-Mount with electronic communication contacts and provides extensive connectivity options including HDMI 2.1 Type-A, USB-C USB 3.1 Gen 2, microphone and headphone ports, a sync/timecode interface and an ISO accessory shoe with additional control contacts. Dual card support includes SD UHS-I/UHS-II and CFexpress Type B media for flexible storage workflows.

Reliable Power and Wireless Integration

Powered by the Leica BP-SCL6 lithium-ion battery, the SL3-P delivers up to 383 shots under standard CIPA testing conditions and up to 1,431 shots using Leica's adapted shooting cycle. Wireless connectivity includes Bluetooth 5.0 LE and WLAN compatibility through the Leica FOTOS app, enabling image transfer and remote camera functionality. USB-C charging is supported both during operation and when the camera is powered off, providing flexible power management for extended shooting sessions.

Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-70mm f/2.8 ASPH. Lens

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.

Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 70-200mm f/2.8 ASPH. Lens (L-Mount)

Featuring a constant bright maximum aperture and a convenient form factor, the Vario-Elmarit-SL 70-200mm f/2.8 ASPH. Lens from Leica delivers excellent performance for telephoto applications such as event, sports, portrait, and nature photography. Three aspherical elements within the lens reduce various optical aberrations and 3.5 stops of optical image stabilisation allow for reliable, razor-sharp results across the entire frame.

Design & Construction

The combination of a constant aperture of f/2.8 and internal focusing ensures convenient handling. Sophisticated multi-layer and aqua-dura coatings on the glass surfaces coupled with the detachable lens hood help prevent unwanted stray light from entering the lens. Additionally, the lens's aluminium all-metal housing is anodised and protects against dust and moisture.
