Wrong way of thinking, IMHO - most people who do talks on 
conferences are not the superexperts on some field... 
Furthermore, sometimes people are less qualified do better talks 
as they focus more on "presenting" something to the audience. So 
you do not have to be superqualified, but you have to:
1) like the thing you are presenting
2) be good at presenting

Cheers!
