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.

“All the old supports going, gone, this man reaches out a hand to steady himself on a ledge of rough brick that is warm in the sun: his hand feeds him messages of solidity, but his mind messages of destruction, for this breathing substance, made of earth, will be a dance of atoms, he knows it, his intelligence tells him so: there will soon be war, he is in the middle of war, where he stands will be a waste, mounds of rubble, and this solid earthy substance will be a film of dust on ruins.”
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
