cuz you are like many out there that are quick to proclaim that "its not the camera, its photographer", when that is one of the dumbest horse beaten rhetorics in the photography world.
your equipment impacts your work, unless your work is in a very limited scope, like day time portraits of your kid next to a guy in a mickey mouse costume.
and better equipment will produce better work, or at the very least allow you to work in conditions that you otherwise could not work in.

you go shoot candle light scenes without a tripod and then try to print it 20X30 on a 6 megapixle point and shoot and then come back here and tell us that equipment doesnt matter.
considering you make a point about superior glass in the same post you dismiss quality equipment!
sheesh

i wont bother turning this into another "why FF post" except for this,
go and buy yourself a cheap pentax film camera (any of the ME series will do, or a K1000) and shoot a couple rolls of film, and try to keep in mind what sort of shots you are doing with your lens library on your digital vs film.
if you lack a lens library.. my best suggestion would be to hook up with local pentax buddies and rent out their primes for a bit.
this is the best way to understand it, since conceptually people just dont get it.
its only when you use the two systems side by side with the same lens library do you get it, and once you get it, and try a MF camera, you will get it even more :) :) :)
