It is simple - 20 years ago cameras were compared based on quality. Now they
are compared (mostly) by price. Joe Consumer doesn't say "Hum which camera
will give me the best image" he says "I'll buy the cheapest one."

More then once I've been in a Ritz or Wolf or Dury and heard the sales man
move the customer to a cheapo zoom. "This zoom is the same as that but it
is 1/2 the price and goes from 28 to 90 intead of 35 to 70...." or "buy
...."

Joe Blow seems clueless with regards to image quality vs lens...
