The universal wide-angle zoom
Interiors, group portraits, landscapes, and more: This Vario lens expands the options offered by the SL-System into the realm of wide-angle photography and ideally complements the existing portfolio of Vario lenses for the Leica SL.

In addition to excellent imaging quality throughout the entire range of focal lengths and at all apertures, the high-performance lens also offers simultaneously fast and quiet autofocus. This is driven by a specially developed focusing drive comprising a stepping motor and linear positioning and moves a single, very light focusing element that, due to its low mass, contributes to the high focusing speed.

The newly designed optical system contains a total of 18 elements in 12 groups. These include two asphericals for the correction of monochromatic aberrations. Three elements made from glass with anomalous partial dispersion correct chromatic aberration, while an improved mount geometry and high-quality coating ensure optimum suppression.

Leica's new SL APO-Summicron lenses are compact and ergonomic that pair perfectly with the SL, and CL/TL systems.

Street, portrait, or whatever catches your eye: Conceived as a universal lens for all situations, the APO Summicron-SL 75 f/2 ASPH. opens up new horizons for photography in the transitional zone between standard and telephoto focal lengths.

The new Leica Summicron-SL-Lenses achieve extremely high contrast performance at maximum aperture, which makes them particularly suitable for creative shallow depth of field work and distinct isolation of subject details. Thanks to their shallow depth of field and exceptional imaging performance, every single lens guarantees the special look for which Leica photography is renowned.

The zoom range of the fast Leica APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90-280 mm f/2.8-4 follows on directly from that of the Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-90 mm f/2.8-4 ASPH. Together, these two lenses cover a full range of focal lengths extending from 24 to 280 mm.

The newly developed dual internal focusing concept enables the fastest autofocus found in any professional camera system. Its optical image stabilisation (OIS) compensates for up to 3.5 stops of camera shake.

Of the 23 elements in seven moving groups, seven are made from glasses with anomalous partial dispersion for the minimisation of chromatic aberrations. The movement of the two focusing elements is provided by a newly developed drive concept with linear positioning of the lenses by stepping motors. The lens hood supplied with the lens. The lens also has a rotating, removable tripod plate built in.

For Those Who Look Closer - Expected September 2026

Although macro and portrait photography are two different worlds, they have one thing in common: the familiar suddenly appears in a new light. A deeper structure that you had never noticed before. A characteristic that only becomes visible in the image. The APO-Macro-Elmarit-SL 100 f/2.8 lens bridges these two worlds, allowing each to unfold to its full potential. With a close focus distance of 30 cm, it opens up a new sense of intimacy, revealing details in the image that remain hidden to the naked eye.
