Many do, depending on the assignment.  Medium format is still small enough to 
use hand-holdable cameras (though they're significantly bigger than a 35mm 
camera), and can capture much more detail.  Most of the wedding photographers I 
know use medium-format, as does a pro product photographer friend of mine (when 
he's not using his new digital, that is!).  Higher-quality enlargements.
