9006.59.05.40 - Other

This HTS classification, 9006.59.05.40, pertains to "Other" photographic cameras designed for roll film with a width less than 35mm, specifically those that are handheld and have a fixed focus. These cameras represent a broad category for devices that meet the general criteria of being handheld, using film narrower than 35mm, and lacking adjustable focus mechanisms.

This category is distinct from its sibling, 9006.59.05.20, which specifically covers cameras of this type that include a built-in electronic stroboscopic flash. Therefore, cameras classified under 9006.59.05.40 do not possess this integrated flash feature. The classification hinges on the absence of the built-in electronic stroboscopic flash as the primary differentiating factor.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. The practical classification criteria for this specific category are therefore the combination of being a handheld camera for roll film less than 35mm wide, possessing a fixed focus lens, and not having an integrated electronic stroboscopic flash. Examples could include basic, point-and-shoot style cameras intended for casual photography where focus adjustments are not a user-selectable feature.
