The Leica landscape is ever-changing. Here you can find the latest developments and announcements from both Leica and Tamarkin Camera.
100-400 Vario-Elmar-SL f5-f6,3
The new 100-400 Vario-Elmar-SL f5-f6,3 offers the widest and longest zoom range in the SL-System and combines high-end technology with all the advantages of a compact and lightweight design. Made with AquaDura® weather sealing coating, this new 100-400 Vario-Elmar-SL f5-f6,3 also boasts an ARCA-SWISS compatible, detachable tripod base, making it perfectly suited for your nature, wildlife, sports and action photography. And, the built-in optical image stabilization ensures blur-free images while the fast autofocus focuses precisely on moving objects.
SL 1,4x Extender-L
The new Leica Extender-L 1,4x extends the reach of the 100-400 Vario-Elmar-SL f5-f6,3 to 140mm-560mm. With its compact dimensions, the extender fits in any bag to form a powerful unit quickly and flexibly with the lens. Both the extended focal length and the aperture are written into the image data, to ensure that they show the actual settings used.
New Lightweight SL lenses!
Compact & lightweight without sacrificing performance, these new SL lenses weigh only 13-plus ounces - almost half the weight of their APO-Summicron-SL counterparts. As expected, they deliver the classic and famous Summicron look, incredible contrast, true colors, and a distinguished bokeh. These new Summicron-SL lenses focus extremely fast, smoothly, and accurately thanks to their linear direct drive, delivering excellent – and quiet – focus and optical performance.

• Original Optical & Product Design with Modern Production Processes
