I know the short time that I was a Canon user, I was a member of the Canon Pro "club". The difference is that when you send a Canon lens out for repair, it may come back untouched and when you send it in for the second or third time, it may break again the first time you use it. You'll still have to pay to have it repaired again, pro or not. Canon lenses also get discontinued and cannot be repaired, ever.
