New: LEICA S-E
The entry-level model for the Leica S medium-format system
With the new Leica S-E, Leica Camera AG, Wetzlar, offers an ideal entry-level model for Leica S
medium-format system. The camera provides practically all technical advantages of the Leica S
(Type 006) and presents an attractive alternative within the Leica S-System. The new colour
scheme, with a top deck in anthracite grey paint and a silver anodised shutter speed dial, adds
even more to its attraction.
The S-E (Type 006) offers photographers access to the entire portfolio of lenses, technical
equipment and accessories available for the Leica S-System. Owners of a Leica S-E can also
enjoy the benefits of S-System service and extend the warranty for the camera body to three years
with the optional Leica Protection Plan.
Proven advantages of the S-System
The Leica S-E possesses all proven quality characteristics of the S-System. These include the
large 30 × 45 mm Leica Pro Format sensor and its micro-lens layer that guarantees consistently
uniform brightness from corner to corner. The camera is extremely ruggedly built and sealed
against environmental influences like dust and rain – just like all S-Lenses. The system’s unique
dual-shutter concept offers photographers the choice of using the camera’s fast focal plane shutter
with speeds up to 1/4000 s or the electronically controlled central shutter of the CS lenses that
allows flash sync at shutter speeds up to 1/1000 s. The ten currently available Leica S-System
lenses (six of which are also available with a central shutter) offer photographers all important
focal lengths and a first-class tilt/shift lens. The latest member of the family to be launched by
Leica is the Summicron-S 100 mm f/2 ASPH., a lens particularly suitable for portrait
