> You can not make money selling a camera once

You're certainly right about the manufacturer not making money -
but consider what the total amount of money changing hands has
been on some the "still working fine" hardware of the last couple
eras. I'll bet some of the gear has generated 5 to 10 times the
original selling price over the decades.
