Vivitar Pocket 110 AF from China
Though labeled 'AF,' the Vivitar Pocket 110 uses fixed-focus optics with auto-exposure for 110 film <35mm width, hand-held for casual shots. It lacks true autofocus mechanics, qualifying as fixed-focus. HTS 9006.59.0540 covers this as other hand-held 110 cameras.

Import Tips
• Clarify 'fixed-focus' in commercial invoice despite 'AF' branding to prevent misrouting to variable focus codes
• Batch by production year for consistent valuation; rising collector prices affect duty calculations
• Inspect for mercury batteries, requiring special hazmat declarations
