Tell me tales of the Hy6...

Have you ever shot film in one? How good was the AF system? The meter? Can you rotate one of the 645 inserts mid roll or only at the start/finish?

The Hy6 is my dream medium format work camera. I currently shoot a Rollei 2.8E (modified to take a prism) and a Pentax 6x7 at weddings, but I could see leaving both at home for an AF 6x6 camera that has a meter and takes inserts...

I never heard of one until now. Are you still shooting weddings in film? I did for over 20 years before going digital. How can you handle it without 220? In the church 24 frames wasn't enough, I can't imagine 10-15 frames with 120 regardless of how many backs you have. I'm sure that is a wonderful camera, I started out with Rollies.

Easy! I'm not 100% film, and I use 35mm too. Dark churches get digital. Outdoor ceremonies get a mix of film and digital. The vast majority of my film shooting happens during the portraits with the couple, getting ready, and various other parts of the day where I have time. When I shooting portraits I have my 2nd either loading the Pentax or my Rollei, depending on what I hand him or her. I've been shocked at how much I like the output of my F6 though!

However were I to need to load much faster, having a set of pre-loaded inserts works fine with cameras like the Contax 645AF or Hasselblad H, Mamiya, etc... I'd just rather have a 6x6 and 645 in one! That I don't have to rotate!
