The EOS 100 never enjoyed the popularity of the lower-pitched EOS 1000 and it was discontinued in 1995.
As of 2008, EOS 100 bodies can be bought from on-line auction sites from as little as £10/$15.
Along with the T90, and other older Canon SLR film cameras, used EOS 100s can suffer from a 'sticky shutter' problem. This is caused by the camera's internal light sealing foam, which degrades over time and becomes stuck to the shutter, affecting exposures. This can affect the camera's resale value. The command dial is also prone to detachment from the electronic part of the dial, and many used EOS 100s are rendered unusable from this manufacturing flaw.

Famous quotes containing the word today:
“The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“... today we round out the first century of a professed republic,—with woman figuratively representing freedom—and yet all free, save woman.”
—Phoebe W. Couzins (1845–1913)
