About the Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 28-70mm f/2.8 ASPH. Lens

The Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 28-70mm f/2.8 ASPH. is a compact standard zoom lens designed for L-mount mirrorless cameras that combines versatility with portability. The lens maintains a constant f/2.8 maximum aperture across its entire zoom range, providing excellent low-light performance and depth of field control for a wide variety of photographic subjects including landscapes, portraits, and travel scenes. The optical design incorporates three aspherical elements and a floating element that work together to deliver sharp images throughout the focusing range while minimizing the lens's overall size and weight.

At just 1.3 pounds and measuring 2.9 inches in diameter by 4 inches in length, this lens offers over 8 ounces in weight savings compared to conventional 24-70mm standard zooms. The lens housing is constructed from magnesium and aluminum alloys with a dust- and splash-proof design, featuring an Aqua-Dura hydrophobic coating on the front and rear elements for reliable performance in challenging conditions. The fast and quiet autofocus system provides consistent sharpness with a minimum focusing distance of 7.5 inches at the 28mm focal length, achieving a 1:3.3 maximum magnification ratio.
