Why the particles の, と and は are together in "あなたのとは違う"?
I have read this sentence:
私のカメラはあなたのとは違う = My camera is different to yours
But I'm confused with the position of the particles の, と and は.
The particle は marks the topic, と connect the nouns and の convert the pronoun あなた (you) into the possesive pronoun "your".
But, in this case, shouldn't be the sentence like this?:
私のカメラとあなたのは違う = My camera and yours are different
Why there are two topic markers ( は ) ? Why is と after あなたの ?
It's the first time I see 3 particles together so I'm confused.
Thanks.

The original meaning of "は“ is "emphasize", "bold lininig",
which turned to mean "theme", "topic".
(*Theme should be emphasized)
私のカメラはあなたのとは違う
The theme of this sentece is "私のカメラ"
The first は means theme.
The second は in あなたのとは is for emphasizing.
「ちがう」「やめる」kind of verbs/adjectives like to have ”は” in advance. I think they want, by their nature , emphasizing before them.
※ あなたの : your thing, yours,
※ と : focus point of action -> object for comparison.
※ In 私のカメラとあなたのは違う, the theme/topic is "私のカメラとあなたの"

As I understand it, 私のカメラとあなたのは違う is fine and it expresses the same thing, but the structure of the sentence is a bit different. This, to me, sounds like a more neutral statement, while the other structure emphasizes the comparison between the two objects. は appears in two places in the sentence to indicate the comparison. The double は pattern often appears when showing two things that are unlike one another.
私のカメラはあなたのとは違う
When I use the double は pattern, I might use it in sentences like the following:
アメリカでは英語やスペイン語を話せる人が多いです、日本ではほとんどのみんなは日本語しか話せません。
"In America, many people speak English and Spanish. In Japan, however, almost everyone can only speak Japanese."
This is a bit of a generalizing statement, but it serves to show what I mean by example. The two instances are very different from one another and each being presented using the particle は is kinda like saying "on this side A, but on this side B."
Does this make sense? If there is anything that is unclear, please let me know.
