The concept of the Leica TL2 focuses on clean lines, amazing picture quality and an extraordinary handling concept.
With its slim body, machined in one piece, its looks are completely different from all other Leica cameras and possess a timeless clarity in a contemporary interpretation of Leica’s archetypal principle of reduction to essentials.
Extraordinary design
The Uni-Body, machined in one piece from a solid block of aluminum, is robust and resilient. The design was created in collaboration with Audi Design and stands for clean lines in minimalistic form. Smooth surfaces that nevertheless provide ideal grip ensure a feeling of perfect unity of form and function.
This continues with the controls and the shutter button of the camera. The carefully balanced sensitivity give you full control when taking photos.
Excellent images
The high-resolution 24MP sensor, the Maestro II image processor and the fast autofocus ensure the brilliant image quality, Leica is known for.
With a sensitivity from ISO 100 to ISO 50000, you can capture detailed images even in difficult light conditions.
User-Friendly Interface
With the large touchscreen you have full control of the Leica TL2. The customizable user interface can be adapted to your own needs.
As a result, all relevant functions are arranged clearly and easy to reach.
Connect and share with an ease
The TL2 comes with HDMI and USB 3.0. Via HDMI it can be connected to external displays and even large DNG data can be transmitted via USB at high speed. In addition, the battery can be charged on the go or on the laptop.
Thanks to the easy connection to the Leica FOTOS App, images can be transferred instantly from the camera to the smartphone, to share them via Social Media.
