Reasons why it's all so expensive:

The camera lenses are made out of optical glass which in Canada costs about 50$/pound. In addition, the optical glass has to be hand carve and machine carved and microscope checked to perfection. Their margin of error is a few nanometers.

+ the companies sell for more than it's the actually worth
+ The middle men always increase the price

Why its always grainy:

Digital cameras convert the light into digital signal which make up pixels of Red, Green and Blue. Non-digital have photosensitive cells (pixels)of Red Green and Blue which modify the outcome on the film.
