As per world customs classification rule,including India,the digital camera and camcorder fall under same sub tariff heading 852580.But both are further sub divided .digital camera tariff 85258010 and camcorder 85258020. Hence they are different from each other.There is also different duty charged under indian customs law.
The digital still camera are considered ITA (Information technology Agreement)goods and NO BASIC CUSTOM DUTY IS CHARGED as per Notification 25/2005-customs.(http://www.cbec.gov.in/customs/cs-act/notifications/notfns-2k5/cs25-2k5.pdf).
However,there is change in sub tariff heading from 852540 to 852580 for digital still camera.
