What's _fuzzy_ are the boundaries of "who counts as a pro" or "what kinds of
pro do we mean" when we discuss "cameras used by profesionals". >>
"Professional" (in photography) means: a person who takes photographs,
usually for hire: a person who claims photography as their profession and
main source of income: a person who earns a living from taking photographs,
usually a person who is self-employed (free lance) or works for wages at a
studio, advertising agency or publication.
What's so "fuzzy" about that?
Because list members choose to vacillate about ~who~ meets the above
criteria, won't change the meaning of the word or who the "pros" really are.
You either meet one of the criteria above or you're a "hobbyist" or "serious"
photographer: see: amateur.
