Must I make more than 150k photos to be a PRO?

Yes! I read about a Nikon F5 that showed up in Germany with five million shutter cycles.

I wouldn't call the D750 a pro camera for it's control layout and yes its build but plenty of Pro use the D750 so there isn't much importance to what Nikon calls it nor what I call it.

The discussion seems to be mostly a matter of perception vs reality, marketing, price and weight. To me, if the manufacturer says it is pro, then it is pro. Why - because they made the camera and the only opinion that truly matters is theirs.

I totally disagree. In my eyes, the only opinion that truly matters is the opinion of the actual user. If the gear suit my usage, it doesn't matter at all what the manufacturer says it is made for. It is also totally worthless if the manufacturer is saying it is made for me, if it doesn't works for me.
There is no illusion, it just looks that way.
