The Leica Vario-Elmarit-SL 28-70mm f/2.8 is the manufacturer's lightest and most compact standard zoom for L-Mount cameras. By trimming the wide-angle end, the lens has been made very travel-friendly, but the fixed F2.8 aperture has not been compromised.
Also featuring an all-metal construction made to Leica standards and Aquadura coating on the outer lens elements, the Leica 28-70mm F2.8 is also weather and dust sealed.
In terms of optical construction, this is very similar to Sigma, meaning it was most likely made in collaboration, which isn't necessarily a bad thing! The image quality is good, but the mechanical construction is clearly different in Leica's handling and it comes with weather protection.
