Pros: See Review

Cons: See Review

Opinion: I realize (and this is a criticism that I make first of all to myself) that when you review a camera the focus is all on the device, on the container. By doing so, by meticulously analyzing every single detail of the machine (sensor, dials and buttons, various performances), you lose sight of the content... The picture that camera takes, the file I get by shooting. Here, to review the SL3 it would be enough to stop at the file: a DNG rich in information, beautiful and full-bodied at 360 degrees, a unique file (!!) And if that's what really matters, it goes without saying that the machine can only be TOP. Let's leave numbers and numbers alone: the SL3 is a great product; it is the careful evolution of the two previous models in a path of continuous evolution and search for perfection (I shot for a long time with both the very first SL and the SL2). You pick up the SL3 and say, "oh my gosh, when are we going to start"?!?

Pros: Body, Full Frame sensor with triple resolution Maestro 4, high-resolution tilting display, excellent three-phase autofocus, new power button with Stand by function

Cons: For now, nothing.

Opinion: This is my third SL, I didn't have any difficulty using the menu being the same as the previous ones, but improved in the icons which turn depending on how we hold the camera, the icons change color when you go to video. For my reportages I use both the SL3 and the Q3, I seem to use the same car, same buttons, same menu, same battery, excellent ergonomics, Sunday I walked around Mantua with SL3 and 24/90 holding it in my hand, I didn't get tired at all, with the Stand By function inserted, you don't turn off the camera anymore, touching any button it comes back ready very quickly. Finally, I can customize all the function keys to my liking.

Pros: Body,Third Ring,Speed in switching from Standby to Operational,File quality, high-performance af, app. Leica Photos

Cons: Tendency to have hot pixels in long exposures.

Opinion: Taken a couple of days ago to replace the SL2 I immediately felt very good. The menu is virtually identical to the SL2, so there are no substantial differences. The speed that goes from standby to operational mode is interesting. Compared to the SL2 there is a third totally customizable ring that I use in iso mode that I find very, very practical and efficient. The Af has improved a lot since the first tests and the quality of the file is excellent. The body is slightly smaller and lighter than the SL2. The battery of the SL2 and the original wired remote control of the SL2 are compatible, although the battery is slightly less efficient than the new version. Tilting monitor that is a godsend for those who do landscapes. The Leica app works much better on the SL3, I think the wifi has been much improved. I reserve the right to test the camera at high iso in the next few days... The sensor should be checked on long exposures because it has a tendency to produce Hotpixels even using noise reduction... (we're talking about 3 min and up..) At the moment I have to say that it was a very good improvement over the SL2.
