NEW Leica SL3 | All Accessories Explained | Handgrip, Studio Charging Kit, etc. 

Excellent review and some very well designed accessories .... all of which should be included in the purchase of the camera ... thanks for this presentation.

A thorough and informative review of the accessories for the SL3. Well done. Dying to get my hands on all this stuff. Thanks for sharing.

What (another) fantastic review/explanation. Now I need to figure out how to cobble together around $10,000 for an SL-3, lens and accessories.

The new battery is already improved but of course your point is relevant, other manufacturers offer batteries where with one go you get more capacity.

$500 for a very ordinary dual battery charger! That is extreme Mickey-taking by any standard you care to use including Leica’s usual premium price.

Thank you for the video. I have picked up the dual batter charger at the same time as the camera. Still love my 24-90 on the SL3

I got the two of the USB-C DC-SCL6 and use the Anker 87w 2600K PD Power Bank and use it on my SL2-S. The other one I use for the Q3. I believe I have to be patient from B&H with the SL3 when they come into stock. I have it on order but I believe that it will be backordered quickly. Cheers!

great review on all the products!

Great useful video Mr Math, Well done and thank you...also nice watch ;-)

It's like Christmas morning!

HI Matt great presentation as always I’m a little disappointed with the very easily damaged and torn out cable going into the battery case, I would expected Leica would have designed it with a kink proof plastic shroud or spring style exterior to reinforce the connection All the very best

The more I work with my SL3 the less I like ke it. And those ridiculous expensive acessories are the ice on the cake 😂😂😂😂

Just a warning. I lost images from my SL3 during a wedding. They simply disappeared. After lots of discussions with Leica, they released a letter to me stating that they are experiencing this issue with many other customers, and are working on a firmware update to resolve this. They state that... "Unfortunately, with the current firmware of the Leica SL3, the camera malfunctioned in individual cases, which can lead to images that have already been saved being overwritten unnoticed. We deeply regret this. Our highest priority is to restore the perfect functionality and usual reliability of your Leica SL3 as quickly as possible. To this end, we are working intensely with our development team to provide you with a firmware update to fix the error as soon as possible." Please be careful!! Apparently it happens when changing batteries out. The camera goes back and records over your images using the same file numbers, so there's no way to recover them. It's insane!

Hi Math, Thanks and have a nice weekend! Greetings Andreas

Maybe worth mentioning is you can store the rubber cap from the body in the square space in the battery grip.

Leica proposes a ridiculously expensive method of dealing with their poor charged battery life!! $400 for two spare batteries, $500 for dual battery charger, >$1000 for handgrip (To double battery power). Whoa! That’s $2000! Wouldn’t the Leica user be better off with just ONE great battery that is charged “in camera” at end of a shooting day?

they are very very proud of their dual charger...for that price (500) i would expect to get two batteries with that tell me i do!

I really love your channel, if there’s one brand camera that you could recommend for my birthday What would be?

Just about done with a 3 weeks South Africa Safari/Sight see and I’ve only used one battery for my SL3. The USBC charging is almost a necessity at this point. It’s a shame you HAVE to have the new battery for the SL3 for many of the features especially if you shoot video. Considering the 4k could be shot on the previous generation on the old battery.

I dont think the dual battery charger charges the two batteries in parallel? It does it in serial so you have to wait for the first block to be done first. So me think why not get two of the older charger and do it in parallel? If speed is of the essence...

Does it drain the handgrip battery first? SO then switching to the camera battery and grip becomes hot swappable?

Which CFExpress Card can you recommend? I saw in your SL3 Display 2TB

Very interesting accesory the USB-C DC Coupler appears to be. Could it be used with a PD power bank if you want to use it in a situation where your battery was not readily accessible? For example when it is charging or if you want to make an overnight long exposure?

Can the dummy battery work with battery grip ?

Bit early birthday 🎂 or Christmas 🎄 presents 🎁

can you do the sl lenses next

👍 danke für `s Vorstellen/Zeigen

Hi Math, does the dual charger charge the batteries together? The shop assistant told me that this charger charges them one after the other. I don't find this interesting, so I didn't buy this charger. Thanks

At these prices, only for niche photographers with lots of talent.

Im not certain the SL2 charger is getting the new battery to 100%, because the SL3 shows 80% very quickly. The dual charger is still on back order in the US. I think the old charger stops charging where it thinks the old battery should be 100%, and the new battery has 20% more to go. ✌️out

Just a slightly more sexy than an SL2, having tried it, not worth the money.

I would have liked to see an Arca-Swiss L plate.

Only a 2nd battery for me until a viable base plate became available..

Leica will lose out with poor sales.
