There is quite a bit of controversy in the photographic world as to whether or not a film camera should be considered an "Analog Device" since the photographic film isn't a truly analog recording medium and requires chemistry to process an image. "Analog" has become the common term for referring to cameras that are "not digital" and is an easy shorthand for people to differentiate between the two mediums.
