The Leica Q3 43 goes to Crete and becomes the noumero ena for travel

Leica Jonathan Slack -
I received the Q3 43 when I visited Wetzlar in August. I spent all my time with it until we went to Crete on September 23, by which time I had written my article and selected the pictures for the release date three days later...

Review: Leica Super-Vario-Elmarit-SL 14-24 f/2.8 ASPH

L-Mount Jonathan Slack -
It's really difficult to criticise this lens; it handles beautifully, looks great and produces wonderful images at all apertures, focal lengths and distances. Flare, chromatic aberrations and vignetting are all really well controlled. Not only that, but for a Leica lens, it's a real bargain... 

Review: Leica Summicron-M 28 f/2 close focus

Jonathan Slack reviews the Leica 21mm Super-APO-Summicron-SL — sixth in a unified range

L-Mount Jonathan Slack -
It's been a long wait, principally due to difficulties sourcing materials as a result of the pandemic, but finally, here is the Leica 21mm Super-APO-Summicron-SL. I think we were all expecting the 24mm to be the sixth lens in the range (after the 90, 75, 50, 35, 28mm lenses), but perhaps 24mm has fallen out of favour. At any rate, here is the 21mm…

Leica M11-P Review: The camera with Contact Credentials

Leica Jonathan Slack -
The Leica M11-P, announced last month, is the latest iteration of the customary “-P” version of the standard M digital. In June 2011, Leica brought us the M9-P, the first of these modern variants. It's now a tradition that the -P (said to be for “professional”) with its cosmetic and minor technical tweaks, follows on around 18 months after the base model. So it was with the M-P (Typ 240), the M10-P and now the M11-P...
