The Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 24–70 f/2.8 ASPH. is the ideal lens with broad appeal for any photographer given its ability to equally capture reportage, travel, studio, architectural and landscape photography, as well as portraits, close-ups, and video content. With its extensive focal range, consistent maximum aperture of f/2.8, and vast scope of uses, this new addition is a shining example of a lens that can be enjoyed both by professionals and first time SL-System users alike.

The essentials:

• 19 elements (3 with ASPH surfaces on both sides) in 15 groups
• Consistent f/2.8 maximum aperture through full zoom range
• Fast internal focusing with a single, lightweight lens element
• Compact dimensions and lighter weight thanks to omission of OIS
• Lens is stabilized by the SL2 and SL2-S BIS systems
• Excellent sharpness across all f-stops and focus distances with creamy bokeh and the Leica look
• Metal body with weather sealing
• Durable in any environment, making it suited for even the rigors of outdoor landscape and adventure photographers or the hustle and bustle of a pro wedding photographer
