Then I upgraded my FF Canon to the mirrorless R and bought an inexpensive Leica M to Canon RF adapter.
The 50mm Summicron 2.0 with the sensor of the R gives me even better images than the SL1 at ¼ the price.
I'll buy Leica glass but not the bodies (my eyes are too old for rangefinders and the R matches the SL quality).
My motto: glass is forever, bodies are only today's answer.
Nothing beats the Leica M wide angles, absolutely nothing!
The R is ideal, also for Leica R lenses, easy focusing, great sensor! I love my EOS R :love:
Looks like a Phase One.
This is a Phase One
This is a Leica SL (and probably not the MkII)
Intelligent choice by Leica to have offered the L bayonet to Sigma and Panasonic.
Yes and no. The Leicaflex SL has a very nice Viewfinder, pretty bright. But the shutter is known to be a problem. Mine died some years ago and was repaired by Leica Customer Service without fee, they did it obviously only for fun. :-)
The Leicaflex SL2 is mechanically really good, some people would prefer the Leic R 6.2. The Nikon FM3a is perhaps the best analog Nikon ever made, absolutely comparable to the Leicas.
