Lighter Leica standard zoom

The new Vario-Elmarit-SL 28-70 f/2.8 ASPH lens  enters the SL range as the most compact and lightweight standard zoom lens yet, making it an ideal choice for on-to-go photography and videography of all kinds. The sophisticated optical construction, comprising 16 lenses arranged in 12 groups, is built to delivers exceptional performance. Three of these lenses feature aspherical surfaces on both sides, in order to enhance image quality and precision.

The lens will cost £1650 and its advanced internal technology is securely shielded from external elements, such as dust and splash water, thanks to its durable metal housing.

Despite this, the lens remains lightweight at just 572 g. Its compact dimensions – 102 mm in length with a maximum diameter of 72 mm – ensure excellent portability and versatility. The lens hood is an additional £145.
