A small black-and-white LCD on top of the camera allows you to quickly check and change your current settings without having to use the rear screen or peek into the viewfinder. A large, 3.2-inch, 2.1m-dot rear touchscreen allows you to swipe through settings and images and to focus on any part of the image with a quick tap. Its ergonomic design means that you can comfortably shoot for long periods of time, and it boasts a streamlined control interface.

#Leica sl2s update
The aforementioned 2021 firmware update will add eye, face, head, and body detection and tracking for even greater performance. Leica’s extremely fast and accurate Object-Detection autofocus system is great for still and video shooting, and its 225 selectable autofocus areas give you extensive control over where the camera will focus. Multishot Mode is great when using a tripod or when you’re shooting stationary subjects, since it gives you a more color-accurate, highly detailed image than a single shot would and because the resulting image has a 12000 × 8000 pixel resolution. The Multishot Mode uses this camera’s sensor-shift stabilization technology to capture and compile eight separate exposures into a single 96MP RAW or JPEG file. The SL2-S’s five-axis image-stabilization system keeps things ultra-sharp even when you’re shooting hand-held. A large firmware update planned for 2021 will add a waveform monitor, color bars with a test tone, segmented video that preserves footage in case your battery dies, automatic follow-focus operation, and 10-bit APS-C 4K/60p capture using the more efficient H.265 codec. You can use the dedicated Hybrid Log Gamma Photo Style mode and L-Log gamma profile to expand highlight and shadow details for greater flexibility when color grading. All video output to an external recorder via the HDMI port is 10-bit. The SL2-S supports internal 10-bit 4:2:2 recording for frame rates up to 30p and 8-bit 4:2:0 for 60p frame rates.
