L-Mount offers flexibility for the future

The L-Mount standard offers unparalleled flexibility, with a continuously-growing portfolio that now includes over 20 cameras and more than 120 lenses. This system allows all lenses to be used on any L-Mount compatible camera without adapters, showcasing the power of a unified system.

Engineered for product diversity, reliability, and performance, the L-Mount's 51.6mm diameter and short 20mm flange (register) distance enable a more compact design for a wide range of cameras and lenses. Wear-resistant stainless steel construction and a standardized electronic contact strip ensure a robust, stable connection and seamless communication, readying the system for future technological advancements through firmware updates that can enhance performance. The L-Mount standard was first announced at the Photokina event in 2018.

Leica welcomes Viltrox

Valentino Di Leonardo, Managing Expert Technology and Licensing at Leica Camera AG said: "Viltrox contributes valuable expertise in high-quality lens development and brings fresh momentum to our ecosystem. The L-Mount Alliance has been a key pillar of Leica Camera AG's strategy from the beginning, standing for openess, innovation, and the highest standards in photography. With its bayonet system, it offers outstanding flexibility across a wide range of photographic and videographic applications. By welcoming Viltrox as a new member, we are strengthening our network with a highly regarded partner that shares our vision of a forward-looking and versatile system. Together, we aim to offer photographers and filmmakers an even more comprehensive and flexible system that meets the most demanding requirements."

Collaboration, competition, and innovation

While each member brand maintains its unique identity and strategy, all share a common mission: to expand the boundaries of lens and camera technology through collaboration. The L-Mount Alliance guarantees cross-brand compatibility and continuous innovation, ensuring long-term benefits for both users and manufacturers.

About the L-Mount Alliance

The members of the L-Mount Alliance all utilise the L-Mount Standard developed by Leica Camera AG for mirrorless camera systems. Currently, the members of the Alliance are Leica Camera AG, SIGMA, Panasonic, Ernst Leitz Wetzlar GmbH, DJI, ASTRODESIGN, SAMYANG Optics, Blackmagic Design, SIRUI and Viltrox. The partners in the alliance utilise the L-Mount Standard for cameras and lenses that are offered under their own brand names. They market their respective products as competitors, and each with their own product and marketing strategies. The alliance works together on advancing the technology of the L-Mount Standard.

About the L-Mount Standard

To ensure maximum product diversity, the diameter of 51.6 millimetres was chosen to make the L-Mount suitable for use not only with full-frame cameras, but also on cameras with APSC sensors. The short register of only 20 millimetres enables a short distance between the lens and the sensor, which in turn allows for a considerably more compact construction - which is particularly helpful for developments in the wide-angle lens segment. To ensure resistance to even the most extreme conditions and guarantee maximum reliability for many years of intensive use, the camera bayonets are manufactured from wear-resistant stainless steel, with four flange segments that prevent canting and ensure a secure and precisely positioned lens attachment. The standardised L-Mount contact strip facilitates trouble-free communication between the electronic components of the lens and the camera - including the possibility of installing future firmware updates for lenses to react to technological advances and exploit their full performance potentials of the lenses.
