Leica Elmarit-TL 18mm F2.8 ASPH
APS-C LensProduct Gallery
Product Overview
Leica Elmarit-TL 18mm F2.8 ASPH is a wide-angle prime lens for Leica L-mount. It covers the APS-C image circle. Introduced by Leica in 2017, it has 8 elements in 6 groups.
Unfortunately, Leica has opted to omit weather sealing for this lens, so owners should pay extra attention when shooting in incremental weathers.
As a wide-angle prime lens that is quite compact, the Leica Elmarit-TL 18mm F2.8 ASPH can be an interesting component of a prime-lens kit well adapted for travel. Even though the lens is not stabilized, at this focal range it does not usually matter. In fact, some may be able to get cleaner corners without image stabilization.
