I appreciate large churches, I would like to take some interior shots for
them in my UK trip this year. My Protar 80mm F18 is covering 5x7 format, is
it enough to take interior shot for large churches? Or I have to bring my
Schnedier Super Angulon 72mm XL to UK too?

By the way, would you please recommend me churches to be shot with
beautiful interior design in Edinburgh, York & London? Of course tripod
must be allowed.

Thanks.


Regards,
Michael
