Market
Users noted the low cost of the EOS 300 when they were shooting it, and called the body "dirt cheap." Repair manuals and service diagrams are available online. There is no documented original retail price and no widespread collectibility data for the camera body. A Canon EOS 300 F2.8 IS lens (not the camera body) sold for $2,000 in "Very Very Good" condition, but that says nothing about what the EOS 300 camera is worth.
