85.25 - Transmission apparatus for radio-broadcasting or television, whether or not incorporating reception apparatus or sound recording or reproducing apparatus; television cameras, digital cameras and video camera recorders. 8525.50 8525.60 - Transmission apparatus - Transmission apparatus incorporating reception apparatus 8525.80 - Television cameras, digital cameras and video camera recorders (A) TRANSMISSION APPARATUS FOR RADIO-BROADCASTING OR TELEVISION, WHETHER OR NOT JNCORPORATING RECEPTION APPARATUS OR SOUND RECORDING OR REPRODUCING APPARATUS The apparatus for radio-broadcasting falling in this group must be for the transmission of signals by means of electro-magnehc waves transmitted through the ether without any line connection. On the other hand television apparatus falls here whether the transmission is by electro-magnetic waves or by line. This group includes : (1) Transmitters for radio-broadcasting or television. (2) Relay apparatus used to pick up a broadcast and retransmit it and so increase the range (including television relay apparatus for mounting in aircraft). (3) Relay television transmitters for transmission, by means of an aerial and parabolic reflector, from the studio or site of an outside broadcast to the main transmitter. (4) Television transmitters for industrial use (e.g., for readin instruments at a distance, or for observation in dangerous localities). With this apparatus e transmission is often by line. L (B) TELEVISION CAMERAS, DIGITAL CAMERAS AND VIDEO CAMERA RECORDERS This group covers cameras that capture images and convert them into an electronic signal that is : (1) transmitted as a video image to a location outside the camera for viewing or remote recording (i.e., television cameras); or (2) recorded in the camera as a still image or as a motion picture (i.e., digital cameras and video camera recorders). digital data. the photographic cameras of The cameras in heading 85.25 focus the image on a lightthe camera. However, onto photographic into analogue or The cameras of this heading capture an image by focusing the image onto a light-sensitive device, such as a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) or charge-coupled device (CCD). The light-sensitive device sends an electrical representation of the images to be further processed into an analogue or digital record of the images. Television cameras may or may not have an incorporated device for remote control of lens and as well as for remote control of the horizontal and vertical movement of the camera (e.g., te evisioa cameras for television studios or for reporting, those used for industrial or scientific purposes, in closed circuit television (surveillance) or for supervising traffic). These cameras do not have any inbuilt capability of recording images. diaphraY Some of these cameras may also be used with automatic data processing machines (e.g., webcams). "Travelling", mobile mechanical e uipment for television cameras, whether or not presented separately, s (healing 84.28). is excluded from t h ~ heading Also excluded fiom this headin is electrical equipment for long-distance control and focussing of television cameras, when presente separately (heading 85.37). In digital cameras and video camera recorders, irna es are recorded onto an internal stora e device or onto media (e.g., magnetic tape, optical me la, semiconductor media or other me la of heading 85.23). They may include an analogueldigital converter (ADC) and an output terminal which provides the means to send images to units of automatic data processxng machines, printers, televisions or other viewing machines. Some digital cameras and video camera recorders include input terminals so that they can internally record analogue or digital image files fiom such external machines. h: d General1 , the cameras of this group are equipped with an optical viewfinder or a liquid crystal disp2@Dk or both. Many cameras eqmpped with an LCD can employ the display both as a vie n er w en ca turing images and as a screen for displaying images received from other sources or for repro ucing images already recorded. f PARTS Sub'ect to the general provisions regarding the classification of parts (see the General ~ x ~ l a n a t o rNote y to Section XVI), parts of the apparatus of this heading are classified in heading 85.29. The heading also excludes : (a) Apparatus of heading 85.17. (b) Separately presented radio-broadcasting reception apparahls for incorporation in relay apparatus (heading 85.27). (c) Satellite television receivers and satellite television reception systems (heading 85.28). (d) Special urpose vehicles permanently equipped with radio-broadcasting or television transmitters of this hea!mg (generally heading 87.05). (e) Telecommunication satellites (heading 88.02). 85.26- Radar apparatus, radio navigational aid apparatus and radio remote control apparatus. 8526.10 - Radar apparatus - Other : - - Radio navigational aid apparatus 8526.92 - - Radio remote control apparatus 8526.91 This heading includes : radio buoys, with fixed or with multi le aerials or with system (GP ) receivers. (1) Radio navigational aid rotating aenals; receivers, a directional Erame aerial). It also b (2) Ship or aircrafi navi ational radar equipment (whether for mounting on the ship, aircraft, etc., or on land), inc! iuding port radar equipment, and identification equipment placed on buoys, beacons, etc. (3) Blind approach landing or traffic control apparatus for airports. These are very complex. Certain types combine normal radio, radar and television devices showing at the control point the position and height of aircraft in the neighbourhood, and transmitting to the aircraft both the necessary instructions for landing and the radar picture of other aircraft in the vicinity. (4) Radar height measuring apparatus (radio altimeters). (5) Meteorological radar for tracking storm clouds or meteorological balloons. (6) Blind bombing equipment. (7) Radar devices for proximity fuses of shells or bombs. The complete fuses with their detonator fall in heading 93.06. (8) Air raid warning radar apparatus. (9) Range and direction finding radar apparatus for naval or anti-aircraft guns. (10) Radar transponders; these receive radar ulses and transmit pulses often cy g superimposed intelligence in response to t ose it receives. Transponders are use on aircraft to enable them to be identified by radar o erators, and in instrument balloons for the determination of range and direction an the transmission of meteorological information. R B (11) Radio a paratus for the remote control of ships, pilotless aircraft, rockets, missiles, toys, model s ips or aircraft, etc. f?~ (12) Radio apparatus for the detonation of mines, or for the remote control of machines. PARTS Sub'ect to the general provisions regarding the classification of parts (see the General Exp anatory Note to Section XVI), parts of the apparatus of this heading are classified in heading 85.29.
