When I was a much younger working photographer, I always wanted to get to the point of needing Canon Pro services. Truly, something in my mind felt like it was a prestigious thing and that I'd worked so hard to achieve it. Yet in truth, you could easily buy your way into it. And as the years passed, I realized more and more that I almost never wanted or needed the newest camera gear. More importantly, things like a warranty were pretty much useless. But Pro services meant that I could get the repairs I wanted and needed. Though at the same time, good insurance would replace that too.

In 2020, Leica launched the Leica SL2s and we published our review. Around one year later, I bought one along with a 28mm f2 SL APO lens. Since then, the camera has been replaced in the Leica lineup by the Leica SL3s. But just last week, the Leica SL2s, a now 6 year old camera, got a firmware update around usability. It only adds to what I've said for a long time: if you buy a Leica camera, you'll pay a lot of money for a very long service life. In contrast, I haven't seen many other brands do this. Considering that I own the Leica SL2s, I figured that I'd update our review.

Today we're talking about something that too many photographers set to the auto mode and then try to fix in post-production later on: white balance. Understanding it when it happens will majorly help you figure out how to make images more in-line with you creative vision later on -- if you're just willing to think critically and apply these concepts.
