because amateurs use cellphone cameras. they're not interested.
So, everyone using a FF is a paid photographer?
not getting it, as usual.
You mean, not getting the English language?
pro·fes·sion·al/prəˈfeSH(ə)n(ə)l/
adjective
*** relating to or connected with a profession.
*** (of a person) engaged in a specified activity as one's main paid
occupation rather than as a pastime.
The word amateur comes from, is a derivative of the latin amare, that is
an a is a person that does something because s/he enjoys it... HTH.
"1775-85; French, Middle French Latin amātor lover, equivalent to
amā- (stem of amāre to love) + -tor -tor, replaced by French -teur (
Latin -tōr-, oblique stem of -tor); see -eur"

With tennis, the distinction is easier.
An amateur jumps over the net.
A pro's manager jumps over the gross.
