What gear do you recommend for photographing the interiors of massive cathedrals? Cathedrals tend to be dark and not allow tripods. In many if not most cases, shots must be handheld rather than being able to find something to brace the camera against.
I've shot at St. John the Divine Cathedral in NYC a few times, since I live nearby. The 7-14mm is perfect there.
I generally look for things to lean against or use an SLR GorillaPod on the floor or on top of a pew.
Sometime I'd like to try and take a chance with my tripod and a 200mm or 300mm telephoto for some of the details near the ceiling or some of the stained glass. My guess about using a tripod would be to try and not block the aisles by fully extending it. Using a cable release Seems like a good idea, too.
