My question would be "Why woud a serious photographer be concerned about camera brand rather than how to best capture the types of imagery he/she wants?"
A serious photographer doesn't waste precious resources obsessing over technical potential that will never be used, nor spend money replacing good lenses if he/she can update a body within an existing brand. Not all photographers have the same needs, just as there is no one-size-fits-all camera. Brand is pretty unimportant. Suitability to task is important. If the photography is inteded to be a business, cost is important. As humans, we tend to assume that what works for us is what everyone else should be using, too. For a professional to do this reveals something between insecurity and ignorance, in my view. I don't see myself as a Pentax fanboy. I already have the lenses, and I like Pentax's performance per dollar either way.
