Open up new horizons
For photographers around the world, Leica lenses are synonymous with exceptional imaging quality. A seal of excellence that is also earned by the lenses of the Leica TL Camera System.
That’s because they benefit from 150 years of experience in the development of precision optical instruments, are masterpieces of optical design and the best lenses in their class. They are constructed with perfectly harmonised glass types, inner mechanisms planned out down to the tiniest details and constitute our fastest and quietest autofocus system.
TL-Primes
Prime lenses offer their own special qualities: they are compact and fast, and deliver outstanding performance.
Their high speed enables a wide range of options, for instance the use of fast shutter speeds or the creative exploration of planes of focus and depth of field
TL-Varios
When pressures of time or limited accessibility to subjects make it impossible for you to change your position or lens, you can always rely on the variable focal lengths of the zoom lenses of the TL-System
L-Adapter
Dedicated Leica adapters Leica make it possible to use more than 120 different Leica lenses on the APS-C cameras and take advantage of the exceptional imaging performance of Leica M-Lenses and the classic, legacy lenses of the Leica R-System.

SL-Lenses
100% compatible
All SL-Lenses can be mounted directly on the APS-C cameras.
Here, the shared L-bayonet mount brings additional options and more creative freedom – with no need for an adapter. The cameras automatically detect when an SL-Lens is attached.
