And remember, weather sealing, even on pro bodies is not water proof and most pro-sumer cameras are good for over 100,000 shutter cycles. Few of us need a shutter approaching 500,000 cycles. I shoot tens of thousands of cycles per year and haven't worn out a pro-sumer shutter.
If you needed a "pro" body, you wouldn't be here asking us for advice. If you want to blow some money, it's a great way to spend it fast. Lenses are a much better investment than ANY body.
