Leica sl3 p vs leica sl3 s?

The SL3-P is the higher-resolution body: 44 megapixels, 40fps and 8K video, announced in 2026. The SL3-S has 24 megapixels, phase-detection autofocus and 6K open-gate video, and was announced in 2025. Both are full frame, use L-Mount and have in-body stabilisation, so the lens choice is the same for either.

Pick the SL3-P if you want detail for large prints or heavy cropping, or you need the 40fps burst. Pick the SL3-S if you mainly shoot video or want fewer megapixels to handle.

Whichever you choose, these are solid partners:

• Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN Art for everyday and travel
• Leica Summilux-SL 50mm f/1.4 ASPH for portraits
• Sigma 300-600mm f/4 DG OS Sports for wildlife and sport
