Un grand BRAVO pour le retour de vos présentations dans le domaine de la photographie ! Excellente Journée !

Glad you are back discussing photography!!!

What a beauty! What a beauty that Reporter SL2-S is! I also love Leica SL cameras and I was considering SL2, but realized that for my needs, I am much more concerned with low light performance than megapixels. That's why I bought SL2-S Reporter. The marketing has done a phenomenal job putting the megapixels=quality equation in people's heads. I don’t need a Leica with 47 or 60mp. Heck, I've been told they used to do billboards with 8mp back in the day! 24megapixels is more than enough.

Have to agree 100% with you. I own two of these for my work and I’m amazed at the low light capability, the flexibility, plus it’s built like a tank with typical German engineering

I actually bought TWO SL-2S's so I can go out with two different prime lenses and not have to change lenses. And I mainly use it with vintage R prime lenses! With focus peaking and the incredible EVF . . manual focusing is a delicious experience . . and the R lenses render so stunningly with the SL2S!

Leica SL series is something else, and is very refreshing seeing a camera many years old still competing with brand new releases from other manufacturers, that just shows Leica got it right not only in the original product but as you said also in their commitment to updates. I just wish their native lenses weren’t so damn expensive.

SL3-S will have much improved AF just like Panasonics recent improvement within a year it will arrive!! I completely agree about the menu's Hasselblad X1D mark 2 is better regarding menu's but the Leica is wonderful

Totally agree. Love my SL2-S!

Great honest review as a user, love it !

My tip for you: The Nitecore ULSL-USB charger for BP-SCL-4 batteries. Affordable and easy to use. I have 2, one for my SL2-set and another for my Q2

The reporter edition looks really nice.

SL2s is still my fav too after all these years. I never understood why the big players keep coming out with plastic cameras covered in buttons. They don't feel like they are worth anything. I love the feel and the simple user interface of my SL. It also has held its value much more than any other still camera that released in the same time frame.

You are absolutely correct on the Noctilux experience. I always have to lean forward and backward to take several shots in order to get the right focus on my M, but on the SL2 series, it takes only one shot. I am also using the 135 mm M lens on my SL2-S though my favorite M lens is still the 50 mm Summilux ASPH.

Services my needs to 😁 Nice to see you talk about photography again 👍🏼

I use the X2D and SL2 for my fashion and beauty work in the studio, but my personal work is mostly SL2-S and M10-R. I love how it handles M-lenses and the low light/high ISO is indeed insane. One tip: when you need smaller/lighter AF lenses, try the Lumix S 1.8 lenses as well. The 50 and 85 are fantastic considering their price and I even prefer them over the Sigma iSeries. They’re very ligjtweight too, but still can take a ‘serious beating’. Another tip: when size and weight doesn’t matter and IQ is all, try a pre-owned S-lens adapted on an SL2 or SL2-S. The rendering is so gorgeous…

Thanks for the review

Thanks Steve for another great review for SL2-S. I just bought a new SL2-S with 35mm F2 kit lens from B&H.

Thanks for this helpful user review.

Thank you for sharing your opinion on this interesting camera

I had this camera for 2 weeks now and I 100% agree with you. I love shooting my 50 Lux on it. I kept wanting to like the M11 but I just don’t 😅 I do love my MP though!

I wish they have a sensor upgrade program to what the Panasonic S5 mark ii has but for Leica. I am dying for phase detect. Especially with the new 100-400

I have it. It’s wonderful but took it to Iceland. It’s truly a beautiful Brick Try the leica Q3. Stupendous and LIGHT

I bought SL2S and absolutely love it. But now I think I miss the SL. I miss the buttons, and colors.

Forest green body with the gold lens? That’s match made in heaven

It makes absolute sens you and the SL2S...!!!

Nice update. I disagree with your thoughts on the M11. I enjoyed both my SL & M11. Cheers!

Check out the less priced Nikon Z6 body coupled with the Nikon native mount voigtlander lenses and Zeiss lenses.

I agree with you.

Nice review. Did you try R lenses on the SL2S? I've a bunch of them, but they are a bit slow to shoot on a M240 with EVF.

I want the reporter SL2-S so bad.

Thanks for making camera videos again. Please review the Steel Rim

Do you still use the 907x?

O share your sentiments. The sl2s is something unusual nowadays. Noone delivers this insane quality in their products anymore. There is nothing to compare it to.

only 111k subs what the..

Which software do you use for editing the DNG files, please? I mean keeping the camera profile?

For stills.. SL or SL2-S and why? Thanks!

If you have could have one lens only for this camera which would it be?

Leica just launchs 2 new light weight and less expensive lenses, 35mm and 50 f2 ASPH. I look forward to see your review them comparing to SL 35/50mm f2 APO and Sigma 35/50mm f2 dg dn contemporary. Thanks.

Yes Sl2-S my favorite camera The beast ….❤ i use also M10P but Sl2S is better …

How does the color reproduction compare to the SL?

If I can only have one camera/one lens for an all around use it for everything (friends and family, travel, photos of motorcycles, etc) which would be the better choice…sl2s or the m10/11? I’m also curious the size of its portable enough to carry around easily, or if it’s a tank like a Pentax K1 etc

what about comparing it to a Hasselblad x2d

Which M to L adapter do you use? Do you use the Leica M to L adapter or other brands?

#3 - including X1D/II, X2D?

How many shots you can do with this battery?

I dont know if I get this one or s5ii

Is this model todays current model?😊

Did you ever compare the Leica L cameras to the Panasonics?

Welcome back to the photography comments

If I don’t have m lenses anymore….. if I buy an sl2s, should I buy m lenses, or sl lenses?

The A7SIII has the frame rate advantage, for sure. But the SL2-S is actually better in low light. Very surprising! Also, the A7SIII does not have the image quality of the Leica or the A7R series either. I'm not referring to resolution, BTW. The A9 also has problems with image fidelity, as amazing as it is for it's intended application, i.e. sport.

I did get the Hasselblad X2D and checked all kinds of cameras before - but did not try out Leica ;-) a mistake?😅

can I use my canon L lense?

Why would you buy this instead of a Panasonic S5 ii?

Did you try the Canon R6 Mk II as well? It has become my workhorse, and yes, its the best and most versatile digital camera I ever owned, and there were many ... It has no weaknesses, and concerning image quality I can't see a difference to your Leica SL2-S images. Canon colors are also very natural, but you get them at a much lower price than from Leica 😉

Why not get M11?
