For conferences, seminars, shareholder meetings, AGMs, concerts - in fact anything that happens on a stage - PTZ cameras are an efficient and cost-effective way to achieve similar coverage to a full-scale outside broadcast at a fraction of the cost. I should know - I ran an OB van for ten years!

Of course PTZ cameras can be combined with conventional hand-held cameras and jibs if the budget can run to a full crew, but for most events, that's simply not necessary.
