Canon EOS 300

The Canon EOS 300 (EOS Kiss III in Japan, EOS Rebel 2000 in
Canon EOS 300
North America)[2] is a consumer-level 35mm single-lens reflex
camera, produced by Canon of Japan from April 1999 until September
2002 as part of their EOS system.[1] Designed under the supervision of
Yasuhiro Morishita, the camera was intended as a replacement for the
Canon EOS 500N.[3] The camera was a success for Canon, selling
exceedingly well and dominating its market sector until it was replaced
by the EOS 300V (Rebel Ti, Kiss 5).[4][5] Canon EOS 300 won
European Imaging and Sound Association Award 1999-2000. Like
other low-priced SLRs of the time, the EOS 300 used a pentamirror
viewfinder instead of apentaprism, and had a polycarbonate body.[6]

The autofocus capabilities of this camera were identical to Canon's Overview

much more expensive Elan 7 with six single-line CMOS sensors Type 35mm SLR
surrounding a central cross-type sensor.[7]
