Canon EOS R1 vs Leica SL3-S
The Canon EOS R1 and the Leica SL3-S side by side, computed from this guide's catalogue.
Which to pick
Pick the Leica SL3-S if you want more lenses made for it in this guide (158 against 99) and a lighter body (768 g against 1115 g). On these specs the Canon EOS R1 has no clear advantage: choose it if the price, the handling or a lens you own decides it. If you already own Canon RF or L-Mount lenses, the camera on that mount saves you buying them again.
