The Rumors are Confirmed: Leica, Sigma, & Panasonic Form Alliance For L-Mount Collaboration | No Film School

Leica, Sigma, and Panasonic have aligned for future L-mount development, a system for mirrorless APS-C and full frame format cameras. First announced in 2014 with the Leica T (and then again in 2015 with its full frame Leica S)L, the L-mount has a 51.6mm inner diameter and a 20mm flange focal length.

A new L-mount website has been dedicated to its development and features a Q&A worth reading. Currently, L-mount is on the Leica SL, Leica TL2, and Leica CL cameras as well as Panasonic's new full frame mirrorless S1R and S1 cameras. Sigma is expected to release L-mount tech as well.

According to reports online, there had been some issues with iPhone 16 models freezing up when recording video under certain circumstances. With iOS update 18.0.1 Apple aims to fix these issues as well as include some other helpful updates for those potentially using iPhones for video production.
