LEICA VARIO-ELMARIT-SL 24-90 f/2.8-4 ASPH

Offering a versatile range from wide-angle to portrait length, the Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-90mm f / 2.8-4 ASPH. is a fast standard zoom from Leica designed for full-frame L-mount mirrorless cameras. The lens construction of 18 elements in 15 groups incorporates four aspherical elements and 11 anomalous partial dispersion elements, which help to reduce chromatic aberrations and distortions throughout the zoom range for remarkable image sharpness and clarity. The f / 2.8-4 maximum aperture benefits working in a variety of lighting conditions and also offers greater control over the focus position for working with shallow depth of field techniques. Designed for consistent performance at all focal lengths and focusing distances, the versatility offered by this lens is suitable for nearly any photographic application.

Complementing the image performance is a capable 3.5-stop optical image stabilization system that minimizes the appearance of camera shake for sharper handheld shooting in difficult lighting conditions. A quiet and precise autofocus motor also benefits both stills and video capture, and it uses an internal focusing mechanism to speed up overall performance. This focusing design also prevents the front 82mm filter ring from rotating during use to better enable the use of circular polarizing or graduated filters. Additionally, this lens features Leica's AquaDura hydrophobic coating on the front and rear elements, to protect against moisture and smudges, and a completely sealed design against dust and water to protect the lens during use in harsh environments.
