Description
Key information about the Leica SL2-S + 24-90 mm kit before you buy it
The Leica SL2-S features a 24MP full-frame back-illuminated CMOS sensor with 14-bit color depth and sensitivity up to ISO 100,000. The low resolution is not a limitation but a design choice: larger photodiodes result in better low-light performance and more manageable file sizes.
The Maestro III processor and 4GB of buffer memory allow bursts of up to 25 DNG files per second and continuous JPEG capture, with 5-axis internal stabilization working in combination with the lens's optical stabilization.
In video, the SL2-S records in Cine4K and 4K at 60 fps with no duration limit, featuring a full-size HDMI output that supports external 12-bit 4:2:2 RAW recording. It includes a waveform monitor, tally mode, timecode input, and automatic splitting into one-minute segments.
The Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-90mm F2.8-4 ASPH provides a range that covers from moderate wide-angle to short telephoto, with a minimum focus distance of 0.3m at 24mm, a maximum reproduction ratio of 1:3.8 at the long end, and optical stabilization that compensates for up to 3.5 steps according to CIPA standards.
A zoom lens that handles most requests
The Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-90mm F2.8-4 ASPH is constructed with 18 elements in 15 groups, four of which are aspherical lenses and eleven of which employ anomalous partial dispersion glass to correct chromatic aberrations. It's an ambitious optical design that explains both its performance and its weight of 1,140g.
Its focusing system moves a single, very lightweight element, driven by a linear-positioning motor. The result is fast, precise, and virtually silent autofocus, with internal focusing that maintains a constant lens length—something you'll appreciate when shooting video or using polarizing filters.
The rectangular lens hood supplied with the lens effectively controls reflections and stray light. The filter thread is E82, and the maximum barrel diameter is 88 mm, with a length of 138 mm without the lens hood in the 24 mm position.
Is the Leica SL2-S + 24-90 mm kit the one you need?
This kit is perfectly suited as a camera for reportage and events. The 24-90mm range covers everything from wide shots of a room to tight portraits without changing lenses, and the F2.8 aperture at the short end, along with the 24MP sensor, provides real headroom in low-light indoors.
It also works exceptionally well as a camera for professional video and hybrid production, thanks to unlimited Cine4K recording, HDMI RAW output, and built-in filmmaker tools. Dual optical and sensor stabilization allows for handheld shooting that would otherwise require a tripod.
And it's a solid choice for portrait and fashion photography, where the 90mm F4 lens and 1:3.8 reproduction ratio allow you to get a close-up on the face or the detail of a garment while maintaining a comfortable distance from the subject.
When to consider other options
It's worth noting that this lens weighs 1,140g, bringing the total weight with the camera to nearly two kilograms. If your priority is traveling light or shooting handheld for very long periods, a prime lens from the SL system will be more comfortable to carry. If your work focuses on landscapes, architecture, or interiors, where the key is to have a wider angle of view below 24mm, the SL2-S kit with the Super-Vario-Elmar-SL 16-35mm F3.5-4.5 ASPH lens is a better fit. And if you need maximum resolution for large-format printing or aggressive cropping, the SL system offers bodies with higher megapixel counts.
Galaxy Andorra team's opinion on the Leica SL2-S + 24-90 mm kit
At Galaxy Andorra , an official Leica distributor with a physical store in Andorra and over 15 years of experience in photography, we consider this combination the most complete entry point to the SL system. It's the configuration we recommend to anyone looking for a single camera and lens that can handle everything, because the 24-90mm covers the range where most real-world work takes place.
What you notice most when handling it in the store is the overall feel. The SL2-S has an all-metal body with IP54 certification, and when mounted with this zoom lens, the balance is excellent despite the weight: the camera doesn't wobble, and the controls are exactly where they should be.
Our practical tip: take advantage of the combination of stabilizers. The SL2-S's IBIS and the lens's 3.5 stops of optical image stabilization work together, allowing you to go much slower at shutter speeds than most users dare to attempt. Indoors in low light, it's the difference between increasing your ISO or not having to.
