V2.13
I just had called Sinar for a firmware update (v2.13 to v3.10).
There is no problem to do it; I am waiting for a quote.

Did they ever release a 6X6 back for the HY6/AFi?

The 6x6 back is on order, but not yet in hand. I am told they are making them; there is a 645 back already.

I'm interested but concerned about future service and also availability of lenses--where would you buy lenses.  I just haven't followed the AFI camera so have no idea about the answers to these questions.  If I can get lenses and service I'm very very interested.

- Services can always be done by Sinar or DHW-fototechnik.

- AFd Lenses / Rollei mount are still available "New" (50mm, 80mm, 150mm, 180mm & zoom 60-140);
and you can also find lots of great Schneider & Zeiss second hand lenses such as :
the Schneider 40mm f3.5, the 55mm PCS Super Angulon, the marvellous Zeiss 110mm f2.0...
For example, Peartree, a UK leaf reseller seems to have some demo lenses : the 40, AFd80, 90 and 110mm.
For my part, I also have for sale the latest standard Schneider Xenotar AFd 80mm f2.8 (as new, for 990€).
This forum can also help you to find good lens for your AFi/HY6 system.

Hi, I'm interested in your AFi Camera, will you ship to Australia, if so what will the shipping cost be?
Re the firmware I need to check if I need it upgraded and confirm with you.
Thanks
