The Leica BP-SCL4 is a premium, high-performance rechargeable lithium-ion battery designed natively for Leica's professional full-frame mirrorless and compact camera systems. Originally introduced alongside the Leica SL (Typ 601), this battery provides a dense power footprint, low self-discharge rates, and high energy reliability for intensive professional shoots.

Key Features

  • Optimal Energy Density: Engineered with premium lithium-ion cells that maintain consistent power output even in shifting temperatures.
  • Integrated Rubber Seal: The outer face of the battery casing features a weather-sealing gasket to maintain the camera's environmental dust and splash protection when fully inserted.
  • Advanced Power Communication: Seamlessly relays cell health, temperature data, and precise power percentages back to the host camera body.

Camera Compatibility

The BP-SCL4 is universally interchangeable across multiple camera bodies, but its lower capacity limits features on newer systems:

  • Native / Full Functionality: Built specifically for the Leica SL (Typ 601), Leica SL2, Leica SL2-S, and the Leica Q2.
  • Backward Compatibility (With Power Restrictions): Fits into the newer Leica Q3, Q3 43, and Leica SL3. However, because it lacks the capacity of the newer BP-SCL6, using the BP-SCL4 inside these cameras disables high-drain features such as 8K/C8K video recording and peak burst drive modes. It will also trigger a warning prompt on start-up.

Charging Options

The BP-SCL4 charges in approximately 4 hours from empty using the official Leica BC-SCL4 external cradle. When loaded into the Leica SL2, SL2-S, or Q2 camera bodies, it also supports direct in-camera charging via a standard USB-C cable attached to a computer or power bank
