OverviewLeica S (Type 007)

The Leica S (Type 007) is a professional medium format camera built around a 37.5MP medium format sensor and powered by the Leica Maestro II image processor. It delivers a maximum resolution of 7500x5000 pixels with an ISO range spanning 100 to 12500, giving photographers meaningful flexibility across a wide range of lighting conditions. The camera uses the Leica S lens mount and pairs with the Leica S flash system via a standard ISO hot shoe.

Autofocus is handled by a phase detection system centered on a single central cross-type AF point, with subject tracking also available. For manual control purists, a manual focus only mode is also supported. The optical pentaprism viewfinder provides a traditional, lag-free shooting experience that medium format photographers expect.

Burst shooting reaches up to 3.5 fps, and color profile support includes sRGB, Adobe RGB, and ECI RGB 2.0. The body is constructed from a magnesium alloy chassis with dust resistant sealing, weighs 1,260g, and measures 160 x 80 x 120mm. Storage is handled via dual card slots accepting SD, SDHC, SDXC, and CompactFlash formats.

Connectivity includes Wi-Fi, USB, Micro HDMI output, a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack, and a 3.5mm stereo microphone jack. Video tops out at 4K at up to 30fps in 8-bit, with sRGB and Adobe RGB color profiles available. The Leica BP-PRO1 battery is rated for approximately 1,000 shots per charge.
