• Phase Detection Auto Focus
• Object Detection Auto Focus
• Contrast Detection Auto Focus
• AF Modes: Spot / Field / Multi-Field / Zone / Tracking /Eye-, Face-Body-Detection / Eye-, Face-, Body-, Animal-Detection

Maestro IV Processor

This state-of-the-art image processor ensures fast and reliable operation of the Leica SL3 for both photo and video applications. Optimal noise characteristics, rapid signal processing, and the unique Leica colour reproduction are just a few of the many aspects this high- performance processor with L 2 technology brings to photography and videography Specifically for videographers, the Maestro IV supports the data transfer speed of the CFexpress Type B interface and the ability to record 8K videos and a range of highly efficient video codecs.

New Leica UX Design

The new icon and menu design of the Leica SL3 results in a clear structure and ease of
navigation. Photographers can efficiently adjust settings and controls on the camera's display interface with its enhanced touch interaction.
The SL3’s user interface adapts based on the orientation of the camera body. This feature ensures that the information and controls remain legible and accessible, regardless of how the camera is tilted or
positioned.

The camera's grip, button layout, and overall form factor have been optimized to
provide a comfortable and intuitive user experience. It is smaller and lighter, but not too small to disrupt the familiar handling Leica customers are used to, and it is perfectly balanced with all currently available Leica L-mount lenses.
The new tiltable display with its high-quality and durable tilting mechanism offers flexibility, allowing it to view the frame from various angles. The enhanced Top Display provides a clear and quick overview on the photographic values while shooting.
