Here it is, Leica have just announced the new Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-70mm f/2.8 ASPH for L mount cameras. It’s smaller and almost 300 grams lighter than the 24-90mm, has a constant f/2.8 aperture and is only a little bit more than half the price of its bigger sibling. Even cheaper if you buy it as a kit with the SL2 or SL2S.
