Press Information New Telephoto Zoom Lens for the Leica SL-System Press information New telephoto zoom lens for the Leica SL-System: The APO-VARIO-ELMARIT-SL 90–280 mm f/2.8-4 is the ideal lens for a wide range of photographic needs, from close-ups to travel photography and shooting at sporting events. Wetzlar, 16 March 2016. The latest addition to the Leica SL-System lens portfolio, the Leica APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90–280 mm f/2.8-4, is now on sale. This fast telephoto zoom lens offers a range of focal lengths that follows on directly from the already available Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 24–90 mm f/2.8–4 ASPH. lens. Together, these two lenses cover a range of focal lengths extending from 24 to 280 mm and guarantee the versatility photographers need for a wide range of subjects and situations. The new Leica APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90–280 mm f/2.8-4 is distinguished by high speed and an extensive range of focal lengths and impresses with outstanding optical and mechanical precision. Its integrated optical image stabilization (OIS) enables exposure times to be increased by up to 3.5 stops and guarantees shake-free hand-held photography even at telephoto settings. This telephoto zoom lens is an entirely new design and with dual internal focusing that ensures very fast and quiet autofocus and constantly high imaging performance at distances from infinity to its close focusing limit. With close focusing limits of 0.6 meters at 90 mm and 1.4 meters at 280 mm, and a reproduction ratio of 1:4.8 to 1:5, this versatile lens is simply predestined for close-up photography. The Leica APO- Vario-Elmarit-SL 90–280 mm f/2.8-4 is sealed against dust, splash-proof and features a detachable tripod plate for easier handling. As is the case for all Leica lenses, the Leica APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90–280 mm f/2.8-4 was designed and developed by Leica optical specialists in Wetzlar and unites equal measures of optical and technical expertise. The combination of cutting-edge technologies and high- quality materials guarantees consistent quality in all respects. The design of the Leica APO- Vario-Elmarit-SL 90–280 mm f/2.8-4 comprises 23 elements (in seven moving groups), seven of which 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. A special feature of this is that the overall length of the lens does not change when either focusing or zooming. The lens hood supplied with the lens suppresses undesirable reflections and stray light and prevents flare. The Leica APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90–280 mm f/2.8-4 also features a tripod plate for attaching it to a tripod. Its ergonomic design makes the lens easier to carry by hand and allows the attachment of a lens belt. A lockable rotating tripod collar allows the lens to be fixed at any angle. The collar has detents every 90 degrees for rapid switching from landscape to portrait format. The Leica APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90–280 mm f/2.8-4 is on sale as of 24 March 2016. The current lens portfolio, comprising the Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 24–90 mm f/2.8–4 ASPH. and the Leica APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90–280 mm f/2.8-4, will be expanded later this year by the Leica Summilux-SL 50 mm f/1.4 ASPH. prime lens (available in Q4/2016). What’s more, the exceptional compatibility of the Leica SL-System grants photographers access to almost all Leica lenses ever made. For instance, all Leica T lenses can be mounted on the Leica SL without an adapter and the already available M-Adapter T enables the use of almost all Leica M-Lenses constructed since 1954. Leica S-Lenses can be mounted with the S-Adapter L (available 05/2016) and R-Adapter (available Q3/2016) allows Leica R- System lenses to be used with the Leica SL.

This relieves pressure on the camera bayonet fitting. 2 The nominal focal lengths of the Leica SL lenses are based on the 35mm-format, i.e. on a film format of 24 x 36mm. In comparison, with its 23.6 x 15.7mm, the sensor in the Leica T (Typ 701) is somewhat smaller though, approximately by a factor of 0.66. Therefore, when used on the Leica T (Typ 701), these lenses have angles of view corresponding to lenses with focal lengths that are longer approximately by a factor of 1.52 (1.52 = reciprocal of 0.66). 3 Function is not available when used on the Leica T (Typ 701). 4 Function is slower when used on the Leica T (Typ 701). .

    Press information Leica presents the TL-System: The new camera system impresses with perfected features, unique design, precise, high-performance lenses and a range of functional accessories and technical equipment. Wetzlar, 8 November 2016. Building on the Leica T camera system, which has been continually advanced in terms speed, ease of handling and flexibility since its launch in 2014, the Leica TL embraces all the perfected features and leads the innovative camera concept into a new generation with even more innovations and new aspects of its design. One of these innovations is the doubling of the size of its internal buffer memory to 32 GB. Other new features are improved autofocus, especially in AF-C mode, and optimised compatibility with lenses from other Leica camera systems. For instance, the Leica TL now supports SL-Lenses with OIS and allows the use of Leica R-System lenses in combination with the R-Adapter L. A new Leica TL app with revised functions offers additional options for sharing pictures by email or on social networks and is now available for the first time for Android as well as iOS devices. The Leica TL will in available in three colour options from the date of launch: the silver and black versions are identical in design and construction, while the titanium-coloured option is distinguished by a bevelled edge (chamfer) to the top and bottom plates. Functional camera accessories, such as the new high-quality protectors in Nappa leather, which can stay on the camera when changing the battery, and colour-coordinated carrying straps in stone-grey, black, red and cemento, round off the TL system portfolio.

    Press I nformation A new addition to the Leica T lens portfolio: the Leica APO- Macro-Elmarit-TL 60 mm f/2.8 ASPH. prime lens is available from today. In future, all lenses for the Leica T camera system will be marketed under the new name “TL”. Wetzlar, September 1, 2016. As of today, a new prime lens is available for the Leica T camera system – the Leica APO-Macro-Elmarit-TL 60 mm f/2.8 ASPH. This macro lens is considered to be the reference lens in the APS-C segment. It delivers macro exposures with a reproduction ratio of 1:1 and impresses with best imaging performance. Just like the Leica Summilux-TL 35 mm f/1.4 ASPH., the Leica APO-Macro-Elmarit-TL 60 mm f/2.8 ASPH. is available in a choice of black or silver. With this new addition, the lens portfolio of the Leica T camera system now offers a total of six lenses. Currently available are three prime lenses and three zoom lenses that together offer a range of focal lengths for every photographic situation. The two fast prime lenses, the Leica Summicron-TL 23 mm f/2 ASPH. and the Summilux-TL 35 mm f/1.4 ASPH., are classic focal lengths for reportage photography. The APO-Macro-Elmarit-TL 60 mm f/2.8 ASPH. complements them ideally as a lens for finely detailed close-up photography. The three compact zoom lenses, the Leica Super-Vario-Elmar-TL 11–23 mm f/3.5–4.5 ASPH., Vario-Elmar-TL 18–56 mm f/3.5–5.6 ASPH., and APO-Vario-Elmar-TL 55–135 mm f/3.5– 4.5 ASPH., cover an entire range of focal lengths equivalent to 17 to 200 mm in 35 mm format and deliver outstanding images with rich contrast from corner to corner of the frame.
