Oh nonsense. Everybody uses the term "prosumer" for a section of the market, and the same goes with Semi-pro. It's been accepted as common parlance; join the group would you? A pro's results are a direct outcome of two things: skill and equipment. You do need both, though the equipment doesnt make up for the skill.
