The 300D was introduced as a $1200 camera, plastic-y and with a small viewfinder, when a very nice near-pro-level film camera would be <$500 (and a usable point-and-shoot film camera would be <$50).
It was a steal compared to what companies charged for digital cameras before. Aside being build worse than conventional film camera those days, it offered something that many people felt to be very good: they could shoot many photos at a time and view them on the computer as soon as they got to their homes. This great ability will make photolab irrelevant several years after.
curious80, I\'ve got your points.
