Holga 6X6 Mask?
 

I just got the newest version of the Holga, the 120N. It seems that it
came with new bells and whistles that the older version (I think I had
the 120S) didn't have - spool tensioners, a "B" exposure mode, and a
6X6 mask.

Anyway, I completely forgot I had that mask thing. I'm not really sure
what it does. The film I have in my camera now has 16 exposures in it.
And I think I was supposed to use the mask. Will my pictures come out
with a little border, or something, without the mask?

And if I have 12 exposures, then I just use what's in the camera
already - the 6x4.5 mask?

Enlighten me.

Thanks.

The Holga's format is 6x6, which is reduced to 6x4.5 using the mask.
So you should have it in there right now. Without it, the frames overlap
quite a bit.

Hmm. It sounds like you do get 16 6x6 frames to a roll; 16 overlapping
frames.
