Those of us who are camera geeks know that all of the digital SLRs out there pretty much give you the same level of image quality, and that the lens is a much bigger part of the equation. However, people who *aren't* camera geeks might leap to the conclusion that, just like how P&S cameras give much shittier image quality than SLRs, there are different levels of SLR. Which, technically, is true, when you take into account things like full-frame vs. 4/3 and APS-C, although someone at this level certainly shouldn't be looking at the 1Ds/5D/D3 lines.
Although, granted, >And will a better lens take in more light so I get the best natural lighting pictures? does sound a bit too-stupid-to-be-real, I can see that sort of question coming from someone who's learned a little bit about cameras but still doesn't quite grasp everything. And, you know, an f/2.8 L zoom is a "better" lens (in most ways) than the EF 50mm f/1.8, but the 50/1.8 will give you an extra stop-and-a-half of brightness.
