Import Tips
• Verify the device qualifies as an exposure meter by confirming it measures light intensity specifically for photographic exposure, not general lux measurement
• Include technical specifications and user manual showing optical sensor usage for UV/visible light to support Chapter 90 classification
• Avoid misclassification as camera accessories (HTS 9006); exposure meters are dedicated measuring instruments
