Pro or not I've more than once heard photographers say, that a pro camera, is a camera (or any photographic equipment), that you can have reapired within a few days. Some (repair)shops actually have that policy - to repair certain (professional)itmes very fast (having the spare parts in stock, etc.). So, this obviously has a lot do do with sales numbers, service argonization etc. rather than quality or features etc... Regards Jens

REPLY: Pentax never claimed the MZ-S was a pro camera. They have called it semi-pro and the boss of the camera division compared it to the EOS3 and the F100. In camera tech talk this simply means that the MZ-S is built to the same standards. A pro camera for a camera manufacturer simply say something about durability and built quality. Theres something in the argument too that what is considered pro features, simply defined as what pro camera currently have, enters the picture as well. Pentax set out to make the MZ-S different.
