Amid swirling rumours of an imminent AF-equipped mirrorless system camera, the Leica SL, AP\u2019s news and technical teams were all ears when they descended on Leica UK\u2019s Mayfair base to meet Stephan Schulz, Leica Camera AG\u2019s head of project management for professional camera systems.<\/p>\n<p>Schulz pointed out that, not only will the SL be compatible with S and R lenses, but it will also accept M lenses, also via an adapter, using an external light sensor to optimise image performance.<\/p>\n<p>The SL, Schulz enthused, will be the \u2018second best camera for Leica M lenses in the world market\u2019 (quickly adding that the Leica M remains king).<\/p>\n<p><strong>So why is 2015 the decisive moment for such a full-frame mirrorless camera?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2018We think we have\u2026 in [recent] years built up our roadmap in order to target more potential [Leica users],\u2019 explained Shultz.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018What we have seen is that we have targeted the top professional market with the Leica S, a special group of people with the full-frame Leica M and the, more or less, entry-level for system cameras with the Leica T\u2026 But we think the big market is still full-frame.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The Leica M is a special target group. But many people have, besides their Leica M, a DSLR system \u2013 for when they need telephoto lenses, extremely wideangle lenses and autofocus.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018We thought we should offer something that gives them the opportunity to stay in the brand.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Schulz admitted that the camera has been in the pipeline for some time, ever since, it seems, the \u2018R10\u2019 that never was.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018We started to work on the concept just after the phase-out of the R system. It was a long-term concept,\u2019 said Schulz.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018When we stopped the [film-based] R system, many people were hoping for a successor and\u2026 many people were looking for [an] R10 DSLR\u2026\u2019<\/p>\n<p>However, the time just wasn\u2019t right for a DSLR launch in a market in which mirrorless technology was advancing to the point that existing DSLR technology would be quickly rendered outdated.<\/p>\n<p>So, Leica waited until technology advances would make it feasible to launch the SL, a mirrorless model.<\/p>\n<p>The upshot appears to be a robust camera aimed at the demanding photographer, milled from solid blocks of aluminium and sporting a 4.4-million-pixel electronic viewfinder with an AF trumpeted as the fastest for full-frame system cameras.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe it was worth the seven-year wait.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Leica\u2019s boss Andreas Kaufmann casually announced plans to launch the \u2018R10\u2019 in 2008, AP expected a DSLR that was easier to operate than its contemporaries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":324,"featured_media":63856,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[],"product-category":[],"class_list":["post-63858","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-photo-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.8 (Yoast SEO v26.8) -
