Leica SL3-S vs Nikon ZR

The Leica SL3-S and the Nikon ZR side by side, computed from this guide's catalogue.

Which to pick

Pick the Nikon ZR if you want a lighter body (630 g against 768 g). On these specs the Leica SL3-S has no clear advantage: choose it if the price, the handling or a lens you own decides it. If you already own L-Mount or Nikon Z lenses, the camera on that mount saves you buying them again.
