Jim Jannard asks “What is professional to you” http://tinyurl.com/344nbgs
The minimum definition of “being professional” would mean “Getting paid to provide a service someone will pay for.” but there’s more too it than that. I think being professional involves an attitude to the work and an attitude toward your fellow creatives of respect and being able to do your job and do it well among those people.
But how does that translate when we’re talking about “professional gear?”
