Let's see about the third (28-70 F 2.8L) and fourth (M11 with Ibis, no EVF, 47MP) come true ... 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Official launch tmr 1500 GMT+1. my guess: many announcements lately were on a Thursday; that dealer in France was just a day too early! also SL2-S was on a Thursday at 15h so we will see today at 15h german time Edited February 18, 2021 by MediaFotografie Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott kirkpatrick Posted February 18, 2021 Share #123 Posted February 18, 2021 (edited) Adding to the pattern for future predictions, 1500 in CET is 9 am in NYC, which seems to be a standard announcement time and would form the end of any publicity embargo. That's still 6 am in San Francisco, and 10 pm in all of China. I wonder how they feel about it? Stock in hand so close to the day of announcement is a good sign. Let's see how Leica USA does.

I wonder how they feel about it? To be honest I think the chinese market is more concerned about limited M series in organic albinos zebra leather, impractical noctiluxes and revamped faux vintage.... for a large majority of it over the SL... but what do I know 😅. Maybe one day we will see an alarming number of precious "vintage" SL cameras and lenses getting repainted "JCH" style and sold for horrendous prices in HongKong. I am thankful we dont (or yet) have special editions of SL product line so far. Edited February 18, 2021 by Slender 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott kirkpatrick Posted February 18, 2021 Share #129 Posted February 18, 2021 Here's some more. The drawing on the right agrees with Peter Karbe's slide. The drawing on the left has more details, but an extra piece of glass that probably doesn't belong. Welcome, dear visitor!

sebas_ Posted February 18, 2021 Share #130 Posted February 18, 2021 Just now thinking whether I should get the SL 28mm to accompany the SL 35&75 or invest in a Q2 to have a bit smaller camera body with a 28mm for out n' about.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZN Posted February 18, 2021 Share #140 Posted February 18, 2021 (edited) Looking at the MTF charts at post #128 above… There isn't an earth-shattering difference between them and the Leica Elmarit-R 28mm V2. https://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-wiki.en/index.php/28mm_f/2.8_Elmarit-R_II Goes to show how good some of the R lenses were 😃 Edited February 18, 2021 by AZN 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
