HELP!!!

I am new user for Holga 120 CFN and Fisheyes 2.

I have use my starter kit for my Holga, it turns out only two okay photos. The rest are very blur. (Halfway using it, I realized I did not put my film properly and actually remove the cover to adjust the film, could it be the film is exposed?)

I use my FishEyes No.2, it turn out I have only 3 visible photos and these 3 are taken in the total darkness with flash.

The rest I can't see at all. It is all white in color. Which I suspect too bright. Those are photos taken indoor with lights, some with flash, some without flash. I use Kodak Film with ISO 400.

I also tried multiexposure I ended up with two different photos too.

What's wrong? Can someone advise what film should I use under what situation? Is there anywhere I can read up on all these information? So I can use my Holga and Fisheyes to it fullest potential.

I do not wish to waste more money to develop films that are like that. And I have taken some scene that I love alot and ended up not seeing it..

I'm no expert cos I just got my Holga & Fisheye 2 too. However the best place to read up would probably be the guides and booklets that came with your camera. They do have advice on what flim to use as well.
