Leica SL3-S Mirrorless Camera, Leica SL3-S: Faster than Ever !
The Leica SL3-S Mirrorless Camera arrives 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.
24MP Full-Frame BSI CMOS Sensor and Maestro IV Processor
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.
Advanced Autofocus System
The SL3-S sensor boasts 779 autofocus points, which is three times more than the SL-2S and over two times more than the SL3. The combination of Contrast Detection AF and the 779-point phase-detection system affords quicker, more intelligent object detection and tracking for working with moving subjects, especially when shooting continuously up to 30 fps. Tracking, in general, has never been easier for Leica users.
Video Capabilities

Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 28-70mm f/2.8 ASPH. Lens (L-Mount)
Sleek and Speedy Versatility
A surprising combination of compactness, speed, and versatility, the Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 28-70mm f/2.8 ASPH. is a sleek standard zoom for L-mount mirrorless cameras. Trading a bit of reach on the wide end of the zoom, compared to a conventional 24-70mm lens, this zoom instead manages to be especially small and lightweight while still offering a constant f/2.8 maximum aperture for excellent low-light performance and depth of field control. This portable zoom is ideal for everyday shooting and a range of subjects, including everything from landscapes, to portraits, to travel scenes.
Compact Performance
Designed as the most compact and lightweight standard zoom for the SL system, this lens covers a useful wide-angle to portrait-length range and retains an impressively bright f/2.8 constant maximum aperture.
- Constant f/2.8 maximum aperture enables working in low-light conditions throughout the zoom range as well as benefits control over depth of field.
- Optical design uses a trio of aspherical elements to improve sharpness and promote the more compact, portable lens design.
- Updated lens coatings offer increased contrast and accurate color rendering in a variety of lighting conditions.
- Floating element in the lens design helps maintain consistent sharpness throughout the focusing range.
- Quiet and fast focusing drive benefits both photographers and videographers; the focusing range also achieves a 1:3.3 maximum magnification from a 7.5″ minimum focusing distance at the 28mm focal length position.
Durable Design and Intuitive Handling
In addition to its portable design, this lens is also built for use in a variety of conditions and sports a reliable physical construction.
- Portable lens weighs 1.3 lb and measures 2.9 x 4″; this is more than an 8 oz weight savings compared to the Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-70mm f/2.8 lens while also being nearly an inch shorter.
- Lens housing is built from magnesium, and aluminum alloys and has a simple, minimalist design with dual control rings to adjust both focus and zoom positions.
- Dust- and splash-proof design for working in inclement conditions and an Aqua-Dura hydrophobic coating has been applied to the front and rear elements.
