9006.53.02.70 - Other 🖩

This HTS classification, 9006.53.02.70, pertains to photographic cameras designed for roll film with a width of 35 mm, which do not fall under any more specific subcategories. These cameras represent the residual classification for this particular type of film format when other defining features are absent. The scope includes a wide array of 35mm film cameras, encompassing various designs and functionalities that are not explicitly listed elsewhere within the 9006.53 subheading.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 9006.53.02.50, is crucial. The sibling classification specifically identifies cameras equipped with a built-in electronic stroboscopic flash. Therefore, 9006.53.02.70 covers all other 35mm roll film cameras that *lack* this integrated flash capability, regardless of other features such as lens type, aperture, shutter speed mechanisms, or automated functions. This "Other" designation is vital for capturing cameras that fit the general description of 35mm roll film cameras but do not possess the specific flash characteristic defining the sibling.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 9006.53.02.70. Classification decisions for items falling under this heading will therefore rely on a thorough assessment of whether the camera is indeed a 35mm roll film camera and whether it possesses a built-in electronic stroboscopic flash. If neither the "other" designation nor the specific flash feature applies, further investigation into preceding levels of the HTS nomenclature would be required.
