You wouldn't make light of the situation ~if~ you had to make a living at
photography. ~Then~ what you choose matters. Think of a meat cutter. No way
could they make a living with Ginsu knives, or a fire fighter go through a
career with only an ordinary household water hose.
Of course there ~are~ parameters for a "professional" camera, SLR or not.
While everyone makes light of it, nearly ~every~ SLR PENTAX made could serve
as a "pro" camera, especially the bodies that have motors, (winders), use
"pro" level (TTL) PENTAX flashes-etc.
The talk would serve better ends if one spoke of the ~minimum~ requirements
for a "pro" body.
Certainly the LX, (a true "system" camera), PZ-1p, Super Program ("system"
camera-lite) all fit in the "pro" category for SLRs.
***Put a a little body sealing, (as in the PENTAX WR-90 P&S), 1/250 or
1/200th sec flash sync and auto-focus on the Super Program and "pro" camera
jumps out at you.
Then there are the MEs...
