Sinar Hy6 Operating Manual; Version 1.4; 2009 – 11 – 13
1 Introduction
Congratulations to your new Sinar Hy6 system. You have purchased a reliable state of the
art professional medium format camera system enabling you to take pictures at highest
quality. The broad variety of the functions and the easy and intuitive operation of the
camera make it the ideal instrument for each application field of professional
photography.
Designed and developed in cooperation with Franke & Heidecke, the Sinar Hy6 system
sets new standards in medium format photography. Sinar Hy6 is a digital-analogue hybrid
system working with digital camera backs as well as with film magazines, and is presently
the only medium format camera that does not only cover the usual 6 x 4.5 cm format, but
also the classic 6 x 6 cm format. With its central shutter and a shutter speed of only
s, it is also the fastest camera in its class.
An outstanding feature of the camera is its versatility and ease of use. Using the 6 x 4.5
cm format, portrait or landscape format can be selected without altering the camera’s
position by changing the orientation of the back. As light metering with the Sinar Hy6
system is performed independent of the viewfinder, the Sinar Hy6 system can be operated
with a 90° reflex viewfinder or a 45° prism viewfinder, or with a waist-level viewfinder.
The ergonomic design and the position of the operational elements guarantee quick
access to all functions. There are no nested menus; in this way you will be able to call up
all camera functions intuitively after you have been working with the camera for a while.
The following operating manual provides you with a description of the camera functions,
and with the instructions about the camera operation. Please read the safety advice and
observe the assembly instructions before starting to work with the camera.
A detailed description of the Sinarback and its functions can be found in a separate
documentation. Please refer also to this documentation in order to benefit from all
functions of your Sinar Hy6 system, and to take optimum pictures.

sun or extremely hot light sources. In rare cases, focusing the camera
onto extremely hot light sources can lead to an impairment of your
vision capability.
If the camera has been dropped into water, or if the internal parts have
been in contact with water, take the battery out of the battery
compartment. Do not use the camera any more. Contact customer
service.
If any abnormal behaviour of the camera (e.g. smoke, noise, smell)

Sinar Hy6 Operating Manual; Version 1.4; 2009 – 11 – 13
2.2.2 Advice for preventing damages to the camera
Avoid strong magnetic fields.
Strong magnetic fields can damage the camera functions or destroy the
recorded data. Do not use the camera nearby devices that produce high
electro-magnetic fields (e.g. magnets or electric motors).
Avoid contact with sand, dust, toxic gas, water etc.
This can lead to a failure of the camera. If water is on the surface of the
camera or the lens, wipe it away with a dry and soft, wood free tissue.
When the camera has been exposed to saline air, the casing has to be
wiped with a slightly moistened tissue.
Always remove the extension ring from the camera first.
If extension rings are used with the camera, do not establish or release
the connection between the ring and the lens as long as the extension
ring is attached to the camera. Always remove the ring from the camera
first, and then remove the lens from the ring.
Do not touch the internal parts of the camera.
The camera contains highly sensitive electronic component parts and
circuits. Do not touch the internal parts of the camera while the lens is
removed. Especially, do not touch the mirror and the light-absorbing
coating. Use the protective cover when the camera back or the lens is
detached from the camera body.
When the film magazine or the digital back are removed from the
camera, make sure that the auxiliary shutter lying exposed is not subject
to any mechanical pressure. Use the protective cover when the camera
back or film magazine is detached from the camera.
Do not touch the sensor in the digital camera back. Please use the
protective cover when the back is detached from the camera.
Do not use the camera under water.
The camera is not waterproof, and therefore may not be used for

Sinar Hy6 Operating Manual; Version 1.4; 2009 – 11 – 13
2.2.3 Advice for camera storage, maintenance and disposal
Do not store the camera at high temperatures and high air humidity.
High temperatures and high air humidity can lead to mildew. Do not leave
the camera in a car where temperatures can get very high. Observe the
description of the permitted operational conditions. Store the camera
outside of the bag in a dry and well-ventilated location.
Shut the waist-level viewfinder when the camera is not in use.
In this way, soiling or damage to the focusing screen can be avoided.
Use the lens protection cap.
When the camera is not in use, use the lens protection cap. In this way,
scratches or any other damage of the lens surface can be avoided.
Do not leave the camera in the sun without the lens protection cap;
otherwise fire can be caused by light that gets focussed in the lens.
Do not store the camera together with preserving agents or chemicals.
To prevent the occurrence of fire, do not store the camera near preserving
agents or chemicals.
Do not store the camera in humid or dusty environments.
Do not store the camera near heat sources.
The cables or the instruments can be deformed and damaged. Damaged
cables can cause fire or electric shock.
Store the camera out of the reach of children.
The carrying belt, broken camera parts and electric components are
dangerous for children.
Cleaning of the camera
Use a soft and dry or slightly moistened piece of cloth. Do not use
substances containing organic solvents, benzyl or diluting agents.
Prevent the occurrence of condensation water.
Do not expose the camera to rapidly-changing environment
temperatures. In this way, the occurrence of condensation water outside
and inside of the camera can be prevented. Condensation water can lead
to damage of the camera components, and can impair the camera
operation. When condensation is caused by rapidly changing
environment temperatures, detach the lens from the camera body, and
remove the battery, the camera back or the film magazine. Do not use
the camera until the condensation water has evaporated completely.
To prevent the occurrence of condensation water, place the camera in a
sealed plastic bag. Do not take the camera out until it has
accommodated to the new environment temperature.
