Oh don't get me started on that elitist crap. I get enough of that from CPS. The 5D can be a "pro" camera. The 5DmkII, 40D, and 50D can all be "pro". Even the D30 was a pro camera in its day.
I'm a professional photographer, and the 1-series cameras don't suit my work. The 40D and 5DmkII do.
Sure, Canon market the 1-series as being at a different level, and they
are. They're very nice cameras. But they're not the only "pro" cameras around.

Sorry, was I saying something?
I do think the 40D/50D/5DmkII are a step up from the 30D/5D in terms of body design and "feel". I'm not sure what body photoaffinity is moving up from, but the 5DmkII probably does feel like a different class of device.
