Reviews

Leica Quality in APS-C - Small And Superb5.0/5

Leica Quality in APS-C - Small And Superb While often debated, the quality of a Leica lens is legendary. This is a very impressive, compact, easy-to-use, high-performing glass. It matches my other TL zoom lenses in sharpness and redention, and works equally well on the Leica CL (APS-C) or Leica SL2 (in crop mode). The only "minus" is the rather slow aperture, but one allows for that and uses this lens in appropriate conditions.

ask5.0/5

ask Great lens much better than its reputation as a kit lens leads you to believe, but should be a few hundred lower in price, look for a used one.

Good, general purpose short zoom normal lense!5.0/5

Good, general purpose short zoom normal lense! Performs as expected by a lens from Leica.
