Leica sl3 s vs leica sl3 p?

Leica SL3-S is the video-leaning choice. It has 24 megapixels, phase-detection autofocus, in-body stabilisation and 6K open-gate video. It was announced in 2025.

Leica SL3-P is the detail-and-speed choice. It has 44 megapixels, 40fps and 8K video, and was announced in 2026. The site describes it as sitting between the SL3 and SL3-S.

If you mostly shoot stills where fine detail matters, or fast action, go with the Leica SL3-P. If you care more about video, or want fewer, smaller files, the Leica SL3-S is the better fit. Both use L-Mount, so the same lenses work on either. A sensible everyday option is the Panasonic Lumix S Pro 24-70mm f/2.8, which is listed for both bodies.
