  • “The SL2 has really enabled me to do what I do and the Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-90mm f/2.8-4 ASPH. and  APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90-280mm f/2.8-4 lens is perfect for being on a safari or any type of wildlife adventure. I have been able to get up close and personal to people and wildlife in some of the most remote and inaccessible places in the world using this setup. Ultimately, the SL-System is very robust and sturdy, it’s a piece of equipment that I completely trust, and it has definitely advanced my photography.”

    “I like to have both the Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-90mm f/2.8-4 ASPH. and the APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90-280mm f/2.8-4 in my bag to be prepared for any situation. I need flexibility and often work in conditions under time pressure so I need a lens that delivers a fast and reliable auto-focus. The excellent image stabilisation of the SL2 works perfectly when I document the illegal wildlife trade or the destruction of nature. The subject detail, the contrast and the sharpness are exceptional and always exceed what I see with my own eyes.”

    The focal length of the fast Leica APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90-280 mm f/2.8-4 is matched with the Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-90 mm f/2.8-4 ASPH.. Together, the two lenses cover the entire focal length range of 24 to 280 mm. (Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 1:2.8-4/24-90 mm ASPH. is not included in the delivery scopes.)

    The newly developed dual internal focusing design enables the fastest autofocus of all professional camera systems. The optical image stabilization system compensates for up to 3.5 stops of camera shake.

    An intricate 23 elements, 17 groups optical design incorporates seven anomalous partial dispersion elements to significantly reduce chromatic aberrations throughout the zoom range. The movement of the two focal elements is provided by a newly developed drive consisting of linearly guided lenses with stepper motors. A special feature is the constant length, during focusing and zooming. The supplied lens hood prevents disturbing reflections and stray light. The lens is equipped with a detachable stand base to mount on a tripod. It's easy to carry in hand and attached a lens strap thanks to its ergonomic design. With the lockableble tripod mount ring, the lens can be fied at any angle. A click-stop every 90 degrees allows to quickly switch between landscape and portrait modes.
