Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-90 f/2.8-4 ASPH. overview

The Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-90 f/2.8-4 ASPH. is a 24–90mm f/2.8–4 zoom for full-frame cameras on L-Mount, announced by Leica in October 2015. 24 cameras we track take it without an adapter.

Going by its spec sheet, it suits portraits as well as landscapes and interiors. It is a weaker pick for travelling light.

No store we track in the United Kingdom has it new in stock today; used and refurbished copies start at £1,918.70.

Worth comparing it with the Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-70 f/2.8 ASPH. and Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 28-70 f/2.8 ASPH..
