LCD and Viewfinder
Leica TL has a Fixed Type 3.7" LCD screen with a resolution of 1,230k dots. The Leica TL's 3.7" screen is larger than average and its resolution is up to the class standarts.
LCD is
Touch screen type, so you can change the settings and set the focus point with your fingertips.
TL doesn't have a built-in viewfinder but an optional external viewfinder is available. Lack of a viewfinder can be problematic especially under strong light where visibility of LCD screens goes down dramatically. If you need a Mirrorless camera with a built-in viewfinder in a similar price range, consider Sony Alpha A7R II (Compare) or Samsung NX1 (Compare). If the price is not an issue, take a look at our Top Rated Cameras with Viewfinders.
