Leica SL3 + Lumix 24-105: The Rational Photographer’s Zoom Lens?

After weeks of testing, I am happy to provide my comprehensive review of the Panasonic Lumix-S 24-105 f/4 standard zoom shot on my Leica SL3. The Lumix 24-105 is in my opinion uniquely positioned as the most rational zoom lens for L-Mount cameras: The only zoom lens which covers 24-105mm focal length The only zoom lens with 0.5x magnification for close-up shootings Built-in OIS and solid weather sealing, top-notch build-quality Very good image quality in terms of sharpness, contrast and micro contrast With USD 1300 available at a most competitive price tag In the video I give you a full download of all features and specification of the Lumix 24-105 and I underpin my statements about very good image quality by showing you lots of sample images. In the video I show B&H pricing for my price comparison and the price of the Lumix 24-104 is about USD 1300 with and without UV filter kit so make sure you choose the kit if you want to buy it there :) As said in the video, if you want to see images shot with the Lumix 24-105 at the blue hour and at night then watch this video on my channel: Leica SL3 Light Trail Multi-Shot Exposures with 241MP    • Leica SL3 Light Trail Multi-Shot Exposures...   And here is my Firmware 4.0.0 Tutorial for the Leica SL3: NEW Leica SL3 & SL3-S FIRMWARE 4.0.0 Tutorial    • NEW Leica SL3 & SL3-S FIRMWARE 4.0.0 Tutorial   If you like my content, please subscribe and support my work, many thanks!
