Using the term pro quickly gets things into a muddle, because of its many connotations. Keep the concept "industrial strength/high performance" in your mind when thinking about camera equipment. Generally, (I said generally) prime lenses and f2.8 constant aperture zoom lenses are ruggedly built and have high performance are considered "pro". Your homework assignment is to find out how many current production lenses Pentax has that meets these criteria.
