The Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-90 mm f/2.8-4 ASPH is very fast and offers a large range of focal lengths. A close focusing limit of 0.3 meters at its wide-angle setting and a maximum reproduction ratio of 1:3.8 at the telephoto end of the zoom range provide fascinating opportunities. Its optical image stabilisation (OIS) compensates for up to 3.5 stops of camera shake.
18 Elements in six moving groups
Only one very light element is moved for focusing
This means that the overall length of the lens does not change during focusing
Four are aspherical lens elements and 11 are elements made from glasses with anomalous partial dispersion for the correction of chromatic aberrations
Very fast, almost-silent, precise focusing is enabled by a specially developed drive concept comprising a stepping motor and linear positioning
The rectangular form of the lens hood supplied with the lens very effectively suppresses undesirable reflections and stray light and prevents flare
