'camera' or 'slr' is digital.


But Sam Brown's original post referred to a "35mm camera". No matter
how much you continue to argue, the description '35mm camera' refers
to the film size used by the camera. Such cameras cannot be digital.


of course they can

one example:
https://us.ricoh-imaging.com/index.php/cameras/pentax-k-1
The K-1 combines the performance of a full frame 35mm digital
camera with the unique PENTAX original features you love - all in a
rugged, compact body.


Hmm "403: Access Forbidden - Your location (NZ) has been blacklisted."

I wonder what lies behind that?

In any case, an advertising blurb does not enable a digital camera to
use 35mm film. The K-1 is not a film camera.
