Analog photography is the process of using cameras loaded with film and processing the photos in a laboratory afterwards using chemicals.

Because I didn't know what analog photography was although I had been using film cameras for over 30 years before I saw the word "Analog Photography".

Analog versus digital, early cameras were analog because there were no electronics involved only mechanical. I would think when cameras started using electronics as a part of their system they no longer were analog.

It was simply photography (one method),
until they had to differentiate it.

That is why CNN had to explain it because they didn't agree with your definition. An analog camera as they called it can have microprocessors and memory as well as digital circuitry.

The first cell phones were analog, I believe.
For the most part, those analog signal phones did a much better job than digital signal phones do at making and receiving phone calls in rural/remote areas where cell towers are not numerous and are spaced dozens of miles apart, and cameras were not features of the phones, I believe.

I agree with that definition. Clocks or watches are classified as analog based on whether they have hands instead of a digital display, not whether they run on electricity or not.

But those processors and memory were not used to physically record the actual image itself.
They were used as aids in obtaining the exposure.
