Reinvented Classic Comes to the SL Class

Paying homage to the classic R-mount lens released in 1987, the Leica APO-Macro-Elmarit-SL 100mm f/2.8 Lens brings a celebrated Leica legacy into the modern SL-System as its first full-frame apochromatic macro lens. Combining true 1:1 macro capability with the versatility of a premium telephoto focal length, it delivers exceptional image quality and creative flexibility for macro and portrait photographers who demand excellence in every frame.

Reveal the Finest Details

• Designed to uncover details beyond the limits of human eye, the 100mm f/2.8 offers a close focusing distance of 11.4" and a maximum reproduction ratio of 1:1. Advanced apochromatic correction minimizes chromatic aberrations and ensures exceptional sharpness, contrast, and color accuracy from edge to edge.
• Whether capturing intricate textures, delicate subjects, or technical product imagery, the lens delivers outstanding optical performance throughout the image field.

From Macro to Portrait Mastery

Beyond its macro capabilities, the 100mm f/2.8 Lens excels as a portrait lens, combining flattering telephoto compression with a beautifully rendered background. A nine-blade aperture creates smooth, natural bokeh and seamless tonal transitions, helping subjects stand apart with depth and dimension. The result is a lens that transitions effortlessly between detailed close-up work and expressive portrait photography while maintaining the refined image character expected from a Leica APO lens.

Precision Built for Professionals

Engineered for demanding professional workflows, the 100mm f/2.8 features a fast and silent autofocus system that delivers precise focusing performance without distraction. Its precision-crafted full-metal construction provides excellent durability, while the AquaDura-coated front element offers added protection against moisture, dust, and environmental changes. The versatile 67mm filter mount expands creative possibilities, and despite its robust build, the lens remains well balanced for extended shooting sessions. Together, these features make it a dependable tool for photographers who require uncompromising performance
