Holga FAQFilm has a shelf life for it's usefulness to produce predictable and accurate results. Once you pass that expiration date the manufacturer gives you no guarantee about what you will get from it. How film is stored has more to do with how long it is good. If it is kept in a moisture-proof container in a freezer it will be good for far longer than if it's stored on the dashboard of your car or the sunny counter at a photomat. For experimental photography expired film is just fine.

This would add the advantages of not wasting film by winding too far, you don't have to shoot as many pictures to finish the roll (you would get 12 or 16, just like 120 film) and you don't have to count the clicks.
Related QuestionsCan you shoot color film with the Holga?
Dave's Holga Page - AboutYes, but color negative film is recommended because of the wide latitude of results you'll get with this 'precision' instrument. In other words, negatives will help compensate for bad exposures by the camera. You can shoot color transparencies, but you will be restricted to shooting in optimal light conditions that match ISO of the film.

Holga FAQHolga 120 - The infamous and original Holga. Plastic body, plastic lens, medium format camera. Uses 120 film. See FILM section for more information. Woca 120 - The glass lensed sibling of the Holga. The Woca is identical to the Holga except its lens is made from glass rather than plastic and is therefore supposedly sharper.

Related Questionsi. How do I get those famous "dreamy" Holga colors?
Holga FAQThe dreaminess of the Holga's images is due to the imperfections in the plastic lens and the fact that it is a single element lens. The Woca shares these characteristics as even though it has a glass lens, it's still a single piece of optical material. The end result is you will have certain spots on photos taken with your camera that are maybe a little blurry. One of the first photographs I took with my Woca was of my wife with some autumn foliage in the background.
