What you are looking at is the prototype of a new film back for the Hy6.   The finished version will have a smooth durable body and not the 3d printed type shown here.   I've been following the development of the fm6060 film backs for a while.  The prototype is working and they are getting 14 shots per roll of film with the same 6x6 framing.  It doesn't have a built in dark slide, but it also has NO light leaks, and no problems.    I expect these to be available at the end of this year or early next year for approximately $2500

Several people have e-mailed me to let me know the product pages are not working or loading slowly for them.   It maybe browser/platform dependent but from my testing they do still load, but only after 20-30 seconds.  I'm sorry for the problems, and I've been working on updates to my site which will solve the issues, but it may take me another week or two to complete it.  For now please feel free to e-mail or txt me if you want information about a product.
