  • Key Specs
    • Lens Mount Compatibility: Leica L-Mount
    • Lens Type: Standard Zoom
    • Minimum Focal Length: 28 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
    • Maximum Focal Length: 70 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
    • Maximum Aperture: f/2.8 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)

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.

  • Feature 1: Versatile Standard Zoom for Full-Frame L-Mount Cameras: Covers a highly practical 28–70mm range, offering wide-angle to short-telephoto perspectives ideal for landscapes, portraits, street, and travel photography while maintaining Leica’s signature image precision.
  • Feature 2: Constant f/2.8 Aperture for Low-Light Excellence: Bright, uniform maximum aperture throughout the zoom range enables consistent exposure, shallow depth of field, and superior performance in dim conditions, making it perfect for both stills and video work.
  • Feature 3: Advanced Optical Design with 4 Aspherical Elements: 19 elements in 15 groups minimize distortion, flare, and chromatic aberrations, ensuring edge-to-edge sharpness, natural color rendition, and exceptional contrast across the entire frame.
  • Feature 4: Precision Autofocus and Durable Construction: Features fast, silent internal focusing optimized for photo and video capture, housed in a robust, dust- and moisture-sealed metal body that withstands professional field use.
  • Feature 5: Professional Handling with Compact Form Factor: Weighing just 1.85 lb (844 g) and using a large 82mm filter thread, it balances perfectly on Leica SL-series bodies, delivering outstanding optical performance in a lightweight, travel-friendly design.
