Stunning touchscreen, Excellent raw image quality, Premium finish
High price, Poor battery life, No IS for still images, No built-in EVF
The Leica TL2 is certainly not without its charms. For a start, it's a beautifully made camera, and the fact that it's crafted from a single piece of aluminium underlines the premium feel Leica is aiming for.The large and bright touchscreen is great, whil...
No built-in electronic viewfinder, Uninspiring JPEG output, No image stabilisation in either the body or lens, Doesn't work so well in low light
Leica TL2 – Performance In use the TL2 is mostly pretty nimble. It turns on in a fraction of a second, and reacts near-instantly to the shutter button being depressed. The touchscreen is generally very responsive, although it can sometimes be oddly reluct...
The Leica TL2 is in many ways a lovely camera, but it's also a mass of contradictions. With its sleek aluminium body and touchscreen-based interface, it's simply not what you'd expect a traditional camera company like Leica to make. But it mostly works re...

Incredible build quality, The best camera touchscreen system around, Very fast autofocus and menus
Your wallet has gone into hiding, JPEG colour saturation feels a little muted, No built-in viewfinder, Screen doesn't move or tilt
For most of us, the TL2 is like a limited edition concept car – a vision of the future with features that will hopefully trickle down to cameras that won't tempt us into bankruptcy. There's certainly lots to love, and for other camera makers to learn fro...

Compact highquality build, excellent image quality, large and responsive touch display, excellent dynamic range for still images, solid lowlight performance
Few external controls, poor battery life, poor dynamic range in video, oversharpening in video, lacks viewfinder, PRICE: $1,299
Price-wise, the TL2 competes against models like Panasonic's G85, Olympus's OM-D E-M5 Mark II, Sony's a6300 and Fuji's X-T20. It's a stacked field that offers something for everyone. If video matters, the TL2 shouldn't be your first choice. Sports shooter...
No viewfinder built-in, Limited range of directly compatible APS-C format lenses, High price
It goes without saying that a Leica camera isn't for somebody on a budget. The TL2 retails for £1,700/$1,950 body only, and adding a single lens will set you back at least another £1300/$1,300. That's £3,000/$3000 for something that doesn't have a viewfin...
