It's not often that Leicas are discounted, but this is an offer that's flown under the radar: £1,200 off a Leica SL2 mirrorless camera with a Summicron prime lens or Vario zoom – remarkable!
Every photographer – myself included – has dreamed of that prestigious Red Dot at one point or another, I even own two myself! but while this price could be out of reach for most of us, with over a grand shaved off the price, a new Leica is now nearer the realm of affordability for some!
Three bundles are available in the UK: one with the Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-70mm f/2.8 Asph zoom lens, and the other with either the Summicron-SL 35 f/2 Asph or Summicron-SL 50mm f/2 Asph prime lenses.
Personally, I'd go for that nifty fifty, as I'm a big fan of prime lenses and use a 50mm, which I think is a fantastic all-rounder that covers everything from street photography to portraiture (for what it's worth, I'd also pick that limited-run silver body as well). However, 24-70mm is a more versatile choice and I loved using it when I reviewed it – either way, you can't go wrong!

As a luxury brand, Leica is more expensive than other camera systems on the market. That being the case, discounts really don't come along very often – so if you're interested in a highly covetable Leica SL2 (which earned 4½ stars in our review) this is a golden opportunity to pick one up at an unbeatable price.
