Leica Summilux lenses enable expressive photography
The photographic experience in both models is centred around the main camera and the Leica Summilux lens, which provides a high lens speed (f/1.7 on the Xiaomi 15T, f/1.62 on the Xiaomi 15T Pro) and is adjusted to the various high-end sensors. By combining these, it is possible to achieve outstanding reproduction of details, rich contrasts and natural-looking colours, even in low light conditions. The Xiaomi 15T Pro also includes a powerful Leica Vario-Summilux 15–115 mm f/1.62–3.0 ASPH. lens. New creative possibilities are opened up with focal length equivalents that range from 15 mm to 230 mm – this enables everything from dramatic ultra wide-angle shots to detailed portraits using the super-telephoto range.
Leica 5x Pro telephoto lens provides new perspectives
The new Leica 5x Pro telephoto lens heralds new innovations in the Xiaomi T series: a 5x optical zoom, 10x optical zoom and up to 20x ultra-magnification can all be enjoyed with the Xiaomi 15T Pro. As a result, you can capture both impressive landscapes and the finest of details with the highest levels of precision. Both models are equipped with a 32-megapixel front camera for portraits, selfies and video calls – capturing every shot with Leica’s unmistakable image aesthetics.
Leica Looks & Street Photography Mode
Exclusive Leica image modes are available on both models and include the popular “Leica Authentic Look” for natural colour rendering and the “Leica Vibrant Look” for a more intense depth of colour. Also available is “Master Portrait Mode”, which allows expressive portraits to be taken with the use of newly developed bokeh effects. This is complemented by a specially developed “Leica Street Photography Mode”. This mode allows you to quickly access iconic focal lengths, such as 28 mm, 35 mm and 50 mm, while lengths of 75 mm and 135 mm are also available on the Xiaomi 15T Pro.
