Of course, this all depends on what you call a "pro." My definition of a
professional may not be the same as others' definitions of a professional.
Perhaps one who "self-identifies" as a pro, is indeed, a pro.

Anyway, the people I've talked to definitely self-identify as professional,
and their work is ample testimony to that identity!

What on _earth_ could a pro be excited about with this camera? Maybe that
it'll get a nice patina when it brasses?

Possibly like this photographer they take the M along as jewelry when out on
assignment so it's functionality (or the fact that you can't shove a CF in
it) doesn't matter too much....

I'd be really excited about a digital M or a 35mm f 1.0 maybe but a "new" m6
with a backwards rewind crank ain't ringin my bells....
