M7 is a very specific model; I’m told only films with an ISO lower than 160 will work so I'm happy to see you went with ISO 20. There’s also a very well documented incompatibility with ilford products, best to avoid and stick with Kodak. Good luck!

Try Kodak Ektar 100 in sunny conditions, Kodak Portra 400 in overcast conditions, and go on from there. Shoot Ektar at box speed (100), Portra 400 can be shot at box speed, 200 or 100 and processed as normal.

The M7 is only a rebadged Holga with a luxury goods mark-up.

I agree.  Here I used ISO 1.6 film.  Go slow, or go home.

I think you have a problem with the M7 exposure meter. That looks like a lot of overexposed frames.
