The L-Mount is a standardized lens mount developed by the camera manufacturers Leica, Panasonic, and Sigma. Introduced in 2018, it allows for compatibility between cameras and lenses from these brands, promoting versatility and convenience for photographers. The mount features a wide diameter and short flange distance, enabling the design of high-quality lenses with advanced optical performance. L-Mount cameras are primarily mirrorless, which means they are lighter and more compact than traditional DSLR cameras. This system supports a range of lenses, from wide-angle to telephoto, making it suitable for various photography styles, including landscape, portrait, and wildlife photography.
