Leica SL SL2-S Black 2021

44.1 Best Value Score
24MP full-frame4K
Why we recommend this

A 24MP full-frame CMOS-BSI sensor and 25fps electronic shutter make this a strong hybrid stills and video tool, capable of RAW video output and ISO up to 100,000. The bundled Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-70 f/2.8 ASPH lens delivers the sharp, contrast-rich rendering Leica is known for, though the body lacks weather sealing and in-body stabilization. This camera is best for photographers and filmmakers who prioritize Leica’s color science and build quality in a fast, low-light capable full-frame system.
