Leica SL3: Received My Camera Today

This was definitely a surprise lol.  I have taken a longer break than I thought I would but what a good way to get back into the game :).  I received my Leica SL3 from Bergen County Camera today (yay, I got the first one from BBC lol), and I have to admit, I am pretty darn excited.

Unlike past cameras, I actually didn’t really keep track of the rumors behind the SL3.  Meaning, besides the new sensor, and some of the main improvements, I don’t know everything about it.  But I have been a loyal Leicaphile for decades, and like many other fans, I know I will probably like the improvements :).  I know they’ll keep the things that work, and improve on other things to keep up with competition.  So, you can bet my name is usually on that wait list years before another model is announced lol.

I am already looking to get to work with the new SL3, and I will DEFINITELY be posting more from it here along with my Instagram, of course :).  I will also write up an extensive review of it.  I know I said this about the SL2 but I guess since that was my camera, it was just something I used all the time, and I just never got around to writing a review.  I know, that’s bad but I will write one for the SL3 :).  So, thanks for stopping by, and stay tuned for more to come.

Leica M11-P & Summicron-M 28mm f2 ASPH Release:

For those interested, the new Leica M11-P and Summicron-M 28mm f2 ASPH are released.  I still need to finish my long term review of the M11 lol.  You can find them in the links below:

Leica M11-P from B&H Photo

Leica Summicron-M 28mm f2 ASPH from B&H Photo

The M11-P has a few new features one being the first camera to integrate content authentication according to the Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI) and the C2PA standard.  As for the new lens, I am not a huge fan of the 28mm focal length but with that said, the new Summicron-M 28mm ASPH looks really nice.  I love the size, and the built-in retractable lens hood.  Anyway, some specs for both the M11-P and the Summicron-M 28mm ASPH are below: [continue reading…]
