How many photos do you get on a roll of 120 film?

It depends on your camera settings. Most medium format cameras will take 12 photos per roll - sized 6x6 cm. But it is not unusual for cameras to shoot 16 photos (6 x 4.5 cm) or 6 photos (6 x 12cm panoramic)

120mm is a common - but technically incorrect - name for 120 medium format film. The mistake arises from confusion with 35mm film, another common film format.
