The Leica APO-Macro-Elmarit-SL 100mm f/2.8 Lens is a high-quality lens designed for photographers who love macro and portrait photography.

Image Quality

This lens pays homage to the classic APO-Macro-Elmarit-R 100 f/2.8 from 1987. It features an apochromatic corrected design, which means it minimizes color fringing and delivers outstanding image quality, making your photos look sharp and true to life.

Build & Handling

The lens boasts a full metal body that offers durability and protection against dust and splash water. It also features Aqua Dura coating on its external elements, which helps keep the lens clean and clear in various conditions.

Compatibility

This lens can be used with the Extender 1.4x and 2.0x, allowing you to enhance your focal length for even more versatility in your photography.

Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Riley ★★★★★

The color rendition from this lens is something else — greens and skin tones look incredibly lifelike straight out of camera, no tweaking needed. Tack sharp even wide open at f/2.8, which is impressive for a macro. Probably the best 100mm I’ve ever used for portraits.

Emma ★★★★★

The focus ring glides so smoothly that manual macro shots feel almost effortless, and the f/2.8 aperture gives creamy backgrounds even at close range. I’ve been using it for flower details and it’s become my go-to for portraits too, no hesitation.

Emily O. ★★★★★

The sharpness on this lens is incredible even when stopped down, I can see individual hairs on a bee's leg in my macro shots. It's a joy to use for portraits too, with that classic APO rendering that makes skin tones look natural.
