Leica t typ 701 vs leica tl?

The Leica T (Typ 701) and the Leica TL are close relatives. Both have a 16-megapixel APS-C sensor and the L-Mount, and neither has stabilisation in the body. The TL, announced in 2016, is an updated T with the same sensor. The T came out in 2014. Beyond that, the site doesn't separate them, so the newer TL is the simpler choice if you're buying new.

Both take the same lenses. For an everyday kit, I'd start with:

• Leica Vario-Elmar-TL 18-56mm f/3.5-5.6 ASPH for general use
• Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary for wide, low-light work
• Leica APO-Vario-Elmar-TL 55-135mm f/3.5-4.5 ASPH for reach
