Hello everyone,

my review of the new Leica Super-Vario-Elmar-SL 16-35mm f/3.5-4.5 ASPH is finally published! I compared it with the Voigtlander 15mm at the wide end, and with the Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-90mm at the long end. I hope you'll find it interesting, here it is:

Thanks so much for sharing Vieri, I will be heading over to read this a little later.

I do want to say that even though I use Nikon and not Leica, I like the range of a 16-35mm lens. The Nikon's 16-35mm is my most used lens. I love it's range as it's wide enough to cover most things I want to shoot wide, and it can zoom in tight enough for those times I need a bit of a tighter composition.

So for Leica users, if this 16-35mm has any decent quality, it's a lens that should be in most peoples bags and on their cameras in my opinion.

Thank you for commenting Jim, looking forward to hearing your opinion about the article :) About the lens, it is phenomenal, and as you said I think the range is extremely useful for landscape. IMHO, any landscape photographer using Leica SL should be extremely happy that Leica finally released it :)

The article is well written and quite informative. Thank you for your effort.
Thank you very much Bob for taking the time to read it and comment, glad you enjoyed it :)

Best regards,

Hello Paul! :D Yes, I was really looking forward to it... I think I got the very first copy that arrived to Italy! For the first time in my life, I have been an early buyer - and I wasn't disappointed, the lens is just great! :D

How's life in MF world, still enjoying your GFX? ;)

Best regards,
