Production of the SL ended in 1974, at which time it was replaced by the Leica R3, a product of the cooperation agreement between Leitz and Minolta. The R3 offered an electronic shutter and exposure automation in a camera body which shared little in common with the Leicaflex models, apart from its lens mount.
The Leicaflex SL was one of the last all-mechanical Leica reflex body for several years, before the advent of the R6. It was also the final Leica SLR to show no Minolta influence prior to the introduction of the Leica R8 in 1996.
The Leicaflex SL incorporated full through the lens metering, The SL standing for “selected light” metering area, coinciding with the circle of microprisms in the centre of the viewfinder.
The camera featured a depth of field preview button.
The lenses made for the earlier Leicaflex could be used although they did not allow the metering system to be used.
Lenses to suit the Leicaflex SL incorporated two cams.
The shutter speed dial control was now in black.
Batteries were located in the camera base.
There was a modified camera back lock.
