Leica SL3 to be a Bit Smaller than Leica SL2

the current Leica SL2 (Amazon/ B&H/ Adorama)

Leica SL3 is scheduled to be officially announced in 2024. LR leaked the latest rumors:

  •  Leica SL3 uses the same 60-megapixel sensor as Leica M11 or Leica Q3
  •  New body slightly smaller than Leica SL2
  •  Image stabilization with an effect of 6.5 stops
  •  Phase detection AF
  •  Continuous shooting is 9 frames/second
  •  Supports crop 8K30p and 4K60p, full size & Super35 C4K30p
  •  Official announcement will be in the first quarter of 2024 (March?)
  •  This camera has already been field tested
  •  Type5404 is registered with a certification body

Leica SL3 looks like it will undergo a major model change, with a higher pixel sensor and the adoption of image plane phase detection AF, as well as a new body. The effect of IBIS also seems to have improved by one step, and overall performance seems to be significantly improved.
