The Rolleiflex Hy6 is a robust compact medium format camera developed for digital camera backs of Sinar. It was developed by Franke & Heidecke. Jenoptik payed the construction of the camera. At the Photokina 2006 Jenoptik and Leaf decided to produce this camera together for Leaf's digital camera backs as Leaf AFi. At the same fair Sinar introduced it as Sinar Hy6.

The camera is made for sensors with 6×6 cm image format but has a compact format like a 4.5×6 cm camera. A variety of exchangeable viewfinder units are available for it. New high-precision autofocus lenses for the cameras are produced by Schneider-Kreuznach. It has an adjustable handgrip. If a rectangled CCD is used instead of the quadratic one the image format can be changed from vertical to horizontal by turning the camera back.
