Leica VARIO-ELMARIT-SL 1:2.8 24-70 ASPH. Product description for the Foto Rutz webshop: Leica VARIO-ELMARIT-SL 1:2.8 24-70 ASPH. (11189) Discover the Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 1:2.8 24-70 ASPH. – a versatile standard zoom lens that meets the highest demands in photography and videography. With a universal focal length range of 24 to 70 mm and a constant aperture of f/2.8, this lens is the ideal companion for reportage, travel, portraits, architectural and landscape photography, as well as creative close-ups. Thanks to its compact and robust design, it is perfect for anyone who wants to travel flexibly and light. The Vario-Elmarit-SL 1:2.8 24-70 ASPH. It impresses with outstanding optical performance: 19 lenses in 15 groups, including three aspherical elements and nine glasses with anomalous partial dispersion, guarantee excellent image quality with precise color correction across the entire zoom range. The close focusing distance of just 18 cm at the wide end enables impressive macro shots with a maximum magnification of 1:2.9, while the 11-blade aperture creates a harmonious, creamy bokeh – ideal for portraits with natural background blur. The fast and virtually silent autofocus is driven by a precise stepping motor that moves only a single, lightweight lens. This ensures lightning-fast and accurate focusing – both on Leica SL cameras and other systems with an L-mount bayonet. The robust metal housing, including the lens hood, is sealed against dust and splashes, allowing you to work without compromise even under demanding conditions. Weighing 856 g (without lens hood) and measuring 123 mm in length (with the aperture reversed), the lens remains handy and well-balanced. It forgoes an optical image stabilizer, which reduces weight – when used with the Leica SL2 or SL2-S, the camera's movable sensor efficiently provides stabilization. Whether for professional productions or as an entry into the Leica SL system, the Vario-Elmarit-SL 1:2.8 24-70 ASPH. offers unbeatable value for money and maximum flexibility. Included in delivery: Lens, lens hood, front and rear caps, and a practical soft pouch.
