Leica SL2 SL2 2021
The 47.3MP full-frame sensor captures immense detail, paired with a 5.76M-dot EyeRes OLED viewfinder refreshing at 120fps with just 0.005s lag for precise composition. In-body stabilization counteracts 5 stops of shake, and the weather-sealed alloy body integrates seamlessly with L-Mount Alliance optics. This camera suits sports and wildlife photographers needing 10fps mechanical bursts and a 567-point AF system with subject detection.
