    Leica SL3 Mirrorless Full-Frame Camera

    R 149,995.00

    The latest iteration in the Leica SL-Series, meet the Leica SL3 Mirrorless Full-Frame Camera designed to meet the daily rigorous demands of a professional photographer. The SL 3 offers a combination of state-of-the-art technology and masterly built quality being more compact and about 70g lighter (without battery) than the predecessor.

    Featuring a 60MP CMOS BSI Sensor with triple-resolution technology where you can choose between raw files in DNG or JPEG format with a resolution of either 18, 36, or 60mp. This all is housed within an all-metal body with elegant leather finishes.

    Combining the strengths of three autofocus technologies, the Leica SL 3 Mirrorless Full-Frame Camera are able to create razor-sharp imagery, even in difficult lighting conditions using phase detection (PDAF), depth mapping (Object Detection AF), and contrast recognition (Contrast Detection AF). Further, intelligent subject recognition supports photography in highly dynamic scenes.

    The 5.76 million pixels viewfinder built into the Leica SL3 is an optical system made from glass lenses and always shows your subject with crystal clarity with up to 120 frames per second. Another notable upgrade on the SL3 is a 2.3 million dot tiltable 3.2" backlight LED touchscreen.

    Video in the Leica SL 3 Mirrorless Full-Frame Camera are recorded in resolutions of up to 8K that is supported by codecs like HEVC (H.265) and ProRes (1080p) by Apple. The new Maestro-IV processor is designed to easily handle large amounts of data, resulting in pictures with exceptional colour rendering as well as excellent noise performance.

    60MP Full-Frame BSI CMOS Sensor and Maestro IV Processor

    The most notable upgrade of the Leica SL3 Mirrorless Full-Frame Camera is its 60MP full-frame BSI CMOS sensor and Maestro IV image processor. This combined with the 8GB buffer memory enables incredible image capturing and quality. Also, the improved processor provides a wide ISO range from 50 to 100,000.

    Triple Resolution Technology

    Even while still using the full sensor area, with the Leica SL 3 you are able to choose between 60, 36, or 18MP. This unique pixel binning process allows you to capture DNG and JPEG files at smaller sizes while still benefiting from the sensor's rich 14-bit colour depth and 15-stops of dynamic range.

    Hybrid AF System with PDAF

    The Leica SL3 Mirrorless Full-Frame Camera features a hybrid AF system that is optimised for fast and precise autofocus performance. These include Phase Detection AF with Object Detection AF and Contrast Detection AF, these ensure speedy shifts in focus as well as good performance in low light conditions.
    With the optimised focussing performance, the Leica SL 3 Mirrorless Full-Frame Camera are able to track eyes, bodies, and animals with much higher precision.

    8K Video Recording and ProRes 1080p

    Another major leap in performance is the impressive video-capturing performance. All available video resolutions, including 8K, frame rates, and quality settings can be recorded internally or externally without limits.
    ProRes 422 HQ recording can be done with Full HD resolution at frame rates up to 60p.
    Then you will also find HDMI 2.1 Type A and USB-C ports that will provide greater accessory compatibility for instance external recorders, gimbals and power banks.

    5-Axis Image Stabilization

    For sharper and more stable handheld use, the Leica SL3 Mirrorless Full-Frame Camera provides a 5-axis sensor-shift image stabilisation system that produces up to 5-stops of shake reduction.

    Body Design Updates and Additional Features

    The Leica SL3 Mirrorless Full-Frame Camera features both a single CFexpress Type B card slot along with a single SD UHS-II slot, this allows for additional versatility in file saving. This allows you to save all JPEG files to one card, and all raw files to the other. Furthermore, you can save duplicate files to each cord.
    A USB-C port allows for fast file transferring and tethering with full support for Capture One, Adobe Photoshop, and Lightroom. Also supports high-speed in-camera battery charging. You will also find a full-size HDMI 2.1 Type-A port that is well-suited for video applications and a 3.5mm microphone and headphone jack enabled for more advanced recording needs and situations

    The Leica SL3 Mirrorless Full-Frame Camera is built with a magnesium construction and is capable of withstanding the rigours of everyday use with an IP54 class rating, so it is capable of withstanding inclement weather conditions and is splash and dust resistant.
    Your video recording capabilities include 8K, C8K, 4K, C4K, FHD, MP4 + MOV, H.265, and ProRes 1080p.
    The Leica L2 lens mount on the SL 3 allows for use with the vast selection of L-Mount compatible lenses.
    You are also offered mechanical shutter speeds of up to 1/8000 of a second and flash sync speeds of up to 1/200.
    You are able to work in conjunction with the Leica FOTOS app for wireless file transferring and remote control of the camera via built-in Wi-Fi 5 (MIMO) Bluetooth 5.1. New graphical user interface with new icons and custom font for a more modern design and increased menu legibility.
    Support for Live View portrait and landscape shooting with orientation auto-detection.
