Lost the manual... have I made an error?
I’m now on my second roll with this camera and I’ve only just realised something, I’ve been shooting with the plastic frame attachment in the camera (the one that goes over the batteries) but had it set to 6×6/square format (the 12/16 slide button on the back)
Does this matter? Have I made a mistake? I’m so confused, I’ve lost the manual and can’t for the life of me remember what’s what with this camera.
I should really stick to my Holga 35mm :s

no, you will have nice effects

@riki041 Thank you : ) I guess I need to learn to worry less (and shoot more 120 film!)

Oops, I mean @rik041

Normally you have two masks, a 6x6 that covers the batteries and a 6x4 mask. If you used the first mask everything will be normal, if you used the second you will have 12 6x4 pictures. I mostly use the 6x6 mask. One time I had set the camera on 16 shots using that mask. That gives weird effects. Anyway shoot more 120 film you'll like it :)

@gauthierdumonde Ah of course, two masks! That makes sense, I couldn't think of any reason why I would mistakenly put the 6x4 mask in the camera when I wanted 6x6 shots all along.
I will definitely be shooting more 120 film and hopefully soon some 110 film as well : ) I really hope they bring some 110 slide film out soon!!
