That's not accurate. Steve Huff uses mirrorless cameras, Kirk Tuck uses mirrorless cameras to name two professional photographers. This guy uses a lot of mirrorless cameras and he's definitely a professional (see his gear list at the end of the post):
Why I Shoot So Many Images as A Professional Photographer
Maybe the wedding photographer with a little shop on the corner won't but woop-te-doo. Anyway, I could personally care less what camera someone else is using. I don't need some else to justify my camera decisions. And I have a D700 and an X100.
And I might add if you are basing it on the "mythical pro photographer" I keep reading about on this forum, Pentax is sunk anyway. No 24-70mm F2.8, no 12-24mm F2.8, no 70-200mm F2.8, no 24mm F1.8, no 35mm F1.4, no 85mm 1.4, no 100mm F2.0. So if that's the standard people are setting, Pentax would be stupid to make a Full Frame camera anyway, since they don't have the lenses the "pro" wants.
