9006.59.40.60 - Other 🖩

This HTS classification, 9006.59.40.60, covers "Other" photographic cameras within the broader category of "Other cameras" and "Other" subcategories. This designation serves as a residual classification for fixed-focus cameras that do not fall into more specific categories. These cameras are characterized by their inability to adjust focus manually or automatically, relying on a predetermined focal point to capture images.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 9006.59.40.40 (Disc cameras), is crucial. Disc cameras are a specific type of camera designed to use disc film, a format no longer widely prevalent. Therefore, 9006.59.40.60 encompasses all other fixed-focus cameras that do not utilize this particular film format, regardless of their specific design or intended use, as long as they meet the general criteria of being an "other" camera within the fixed-focus group.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification of a product under 9006.59.40.60 hinges on its physical characteristics and functionality. For instance, simple disposable cameras with a fixed focal length would typically be classified here, provided they are not designed for a specific, more granular classification. The primary criterion is that the camera is of a fixed focus type and does not fit into any more precisely defined camera categories at the preceding levels of the HTS.
