“胶片摄像机”常见的英文表达是 film camera 或 film video camera(“video camera”更强调用于拍摄动态影像的摄像机,不过日常中“film camera”使用更为普遍,即便用于拍摄视频内容也可如此表述 )。
例如:
I still prefer using a film camera for its unique texture.(我仍然更喜欢用胶片摄像机,因为它能带来独特的质感。 )
In the past, film cameras were the main tools for capturing moving images.(过去,胶片摄像机是捕捉动态影像的主要工具。 )
