35mm camera

Analog photo device

A 35mm camera uses film that is 35 millimeters wide, the standard format for still photography through most of the twentieth century.

The designation distinguishes it from larger medium-format and large-format cameras, and from smaller formats like 110 film.

Digital cameras have largely replaced 35mm for everyday use, though film photography persists among enthusiasts: She shoots with a vintage 35mm camera.
