Import Tips
• Document spot metering optics as integral to exposure calculation, not separate telescope per Chapter 90 Note 5
• Include photography-specific apertures (f/1- f/90) in technical specs to confirm classification
• Separate from camera bodies during import; bundled sets may trigger different heading considerations
