I think that might be because each available lens is a known quantity at this point. The 24-90 and 90-280 have quick and responsive AF. The 50 has slower AF that reminds me of the Canon 85 1.2L.

Zone focussing with SL and Zeiss 35mm Distagon ZM
Joshua Lowe replied to su25's topic in Leica SL System
1/500 freezes humans moving at day to day walking speeds. 1/1000 freezes vehicles. My daytime "at the ready" settings w/ a 35mm lens are auto ISO, 1/500, f8 or f11.- 25 replies

Tape over big "LEICA" name on the front of the SL?
Joshua Lowe replied to pmendelson's topic in Leica SL System
You need not apologize for asking a simple question. Some people are simply unable to control themselves. -

I once taped over the LEICA script and wrote "SONY" in silver paint pen. Nobody noticed. -

I do occasionally but sometimes it’s fun to show off. Know your audience. -
Definitely interested in an M10-P in black, preferably paint vs. chrome.

24-90 DNG sharpening in Lightroom – how much for you?
Joshua Lowe replied to hdmesa's topic in Leica SL System
The "right" amount of sharpening also depends on the display method. Printing calls for more sharpening than screens, generally speaking. In my experience, at least. -
Cancelled my SL Order - did I do the right thing?
Joshua Lowe replied to Flyer's topic in Leica SL System
You need more than a store demo to really see if a camera works for you. Rent an SL for 3 or 4 full days of shooting the way you would if you owned it. It took me a couple of days just to figure out the menus. -
How many have sold their M's after a period of using the SL?
Joshua Lowe replied to jplomley's topic in Leica SL System
Sold my M246. Kept my M6. -
SL2 body speculation (now that the SL has seen a price cut)
Joshua Lowe replied to MRJohn's topic in Leica SL System
I'm fine with the shape of the body but I wish the finish were more durable. It's excessively fragile. Even more so than a black paint M. Technology wise the firmware updates have by and large fixed the issues I had. The 35% increase in write speed was a huge improvement. Waiting for the buffer to clear was one of my biggest gripes and now it's so much better. If I were to make a list of improvements I guess it would be the standard - more resolution, less noise, faster and more accurate AF. -

They should do something similar to what Apple does and offer a refund to people who purchased new SLs from authorized retailers within 30 days of the price drop. I would like to know if dealer cost for the SL has also dropped or if it's only MSRP.
