Now to compare two very nice telephotos, the Leica 90-280 OIS on the SL2 and the Panasonic 70-200 f/2.8 OIS on an S1R.  This requires pixel-peeping, so the pictures are going to get inelegant.  Be warned.  The two contestants:

Their sizes are not so different, and both offer internal focusing.  The Panasonic is lighter (its f/4.0 sister is much lighter), and Panasonic's handling of combined IBIS and OIS is superior.  Leica seems to have more to learn in firmware, or may have used a simpler OIS.  We'll have to wait for future firmware to see, but I can handhold down to 1/2-1/3 sec with the Panasonic and more like 1/10 sec with the Leica.

But the acid test is resolution at long distances.  Here is a set of buildings half a km away, in good light on a clear morning.  The sun was higher for the Lumix shots, giving just a bit more contrast.

The full frame at that distance:

In order to check the spelling on the building's nameplate we have to crop significantly.  Here are 100% resolution crops:

U1020841 by scott kirkpatrick, on Flickr SL2, 90-280@200 f/8.0

The SL2, for some reason, handles the Moire better, and presents a sharper image at close to pixel spacing at this range.  Both lenses should be stopped down to f/8 for maximum sharpness, which is probably why Leica doesn't try to stretch to  f/2.8 at their long end.

Thank you Jayne, much appreciated.  It is so wonderful and rewarding to see these animals in the wild. I became involved in this game reserve in 1992, at the time there was hunting on the reserve. The leopards were there but almost impossible to see.  As it is they're very secretive cats, in this case even more so as they were being baited and hunted for sport. Absolutely appalling.

After 10 years of negotiating with the previous landowner, a group of friends and I finally purchased the properties in 2003. Our main reason being to take control to stop the hunting.

It took over 10 years to get the Leopards used to our presence. Amongst a number of research projects which we've undertaken on the reserve was also a Leopard Project . Most importantly this project has resulted in a change in national environmental legislation, which now gives Leopards extra protection with a higher conservation status.

I congratulate and thank you Mike for your work.  Baited and hunted for sport, profit and religion it seems.  The last, the reason for so much suffering and death of both animals and humans.
