I still don't get the grip on the Hy6. I can't even wrap my brain around shooting a vertical with it. Will there be a more traditional grip offered as an add on or is the grip that's on the camera the only option?
As far as ergonomics go, the Contax continues to look like the best of the bunch IMO.

if you ever used a 6008 you will know how absolutely great the grip actually is....
the only way to shoot vertical would be with a 90 prism....not with the WLF:) that is just crazy...with the 90 prism it should be fine.....but either way...you can rotate the back anyway....
it is just plain idiotic to release the only new 6x6 camera (with film pretty much dead) and make it's ONE and OBVIOUS advantage over everything else...the rotating back...not really rotating, but a re-attach....i really hope they will figure this out....
but i would still much rather have that option then to be forever stuck shooting verticals with a camera that is made for horizontals (as all 645s are).....
it is amazing that the RZ is the only camera supporting pretty much any back, rotates any back, has WLF, prism finders (all larger and brighter then anything else),1/400sync, T/S lenses,..... all at a much lower price.....wait a minute....a truly open system!
