How much is a professional camera?

It Really Does Depend What Your Looking For. If Your New To Photography Than I Would Go With A Kodak z981. (The Camera I Use) It Takes Amazing Pictures! But The Video On The Camera Is... Okay. But If You Want To Take Good Photos I Recommend You Use It Outdoors. Indoor Lighting Doesn't Take Good Quality Photos At All With This Camera. This Camera Is About $300. If Your Not A Beginner And Are Looking For A Truly Professional One The Are Near $1000. Hope This Helps (:
