Leica CL Starter Bundle, Black with Elmarit-TL 18mm
SKU: 79942919330X Mfg Code: 19330
- The Leica CL Starter Bundle includes the CL camera and Elmarit-TL 18mm f/2.8 ASPH lens, both in black. The kit represents a savings of $1,695 when compared to purchasing the items separately.
The Leica CL is an intuitive camera with a built-in high-resolution electronic viewfinder and all essential controls conveniently located on its top plate, designed to be used with L-mount lenses. Atop the camera are two dials, with customizable buttons in each center, for setting the aperture, shutter speed, ISO value, exposure compensation and shooting mode – making it convenient for the photographer to take pictures without taking their eye away from the viewfinder. An additional display on the top plate instantly provides all relevant photographic settings at a glance. The user has total control at their fingertips when taking pictures with the Leica CL, and the perfectly tuned pressure point of the shutter release brings it all together with a satisfying haptic click.
