Leica APO-VARIO-ELMARIT-SL 1:2.8-4 90-280mm Leica APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90-280mm f/2.8-4 Your telephoto dream for the Engadine The Leica APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90-280mm f/2.8-4 brings the Alps within reach – from ibex on Piz Palü to action-packed ski races in St. Moritz. With a 90-280mm zoom range (135-420mm on APS-C) and a fast f/2.8-4 aperture, you capture every detail in Leica quality.
