Leica TL2: Now the APS-C mirroless has 24 megapixel resolution and 4K video
Now the Teutonic brand presents Leica TL2, which represents a consistent evolution compared to the first model. The CMOS sensor resolution in APS-C format rises to 24 megapixels and now we have the ability to record 4K to 30p and Full HD 60p. Leica has worked hard on auto focus (a detail that had already been upgraded to TL in terms of speed) and now automatic focus detection uses 49 AF segments and should provide speed and precision.
Leica T is a mirroless launched in 2014 by the historic German manufacturer of Wetzlar, a camera that has been a clear step for the company, with the opening to a wider audience with a product from DNA Leica. Based on a 16-megapixel APS-C sensor, the camera saw an upgrade in Leica TL (November 2016) and shares the same grain of the professional full-frame mirror Leica SL.

It is also interesting to use the electronic shutter for shots up to 1/40,000 to shoot with bursts of up to 20 frames per second, while the sensitivity range extends from 100 to 50,000 ISO. As with previous models, a 3.7-inch back-screen display with touchscreen remains, while the design of the body (obtained by milling a single aluminum block) remains essential.
Wi-Fi connectivity remains one of the Essential points on board, for remote control through iSO and Android app. Internal memory is 32GB, but SD/SDHC/SDXC slot with UHS II support is also available in black or silver livery.
