Watch this review of the Canon 5D Mark 2 made by Roman Lehmann and Kevin Blanc. Roman Lehmann and Kevin Blanc speak Swiss German (Schweizerdeutsch, Schwyzerdütsch, Schwiizertüütsch, Schwizertitsch). Most non-swiss will not understand it, but it is worth to watch the review and test footage they produced.

• Nikon 17-35 f2.8
• Nikon 80-200 f.8
• Nikon 85mm f2.8 shift lens
• Nikon 16mm f2.8 fisheye
