Time Saving – If you wish to view the same scene from many different angles, using a single camera set up would require the scene to be acted out three times. With a multi-camera set up footage of all three angles can be recorded at once.

Live Events – Some events occur live and simply could not be repeated so that they could be filmed from multiple angles. This may include things such as sports matches or concerts

Live Audience – Sometimes it is beneficial for a television show to have a live studio audience, to provide feedback to the writers and director in regards to the reception of their production and also to provide a laugh track. A multi-camera set up enables the scene to flow and allows the audience to react.

Continuity – There would be less continuity errors using a multi=camera set up as the scene would only be being acted once.

Editing – It will not be necessary to use time and money editing as this will have been done during production using a vision mixing desk.

Less flexibility – There are limited options on where camera’s can be placed in a scene. For example you may not be able to do an over the shoulder or point of view shot for fear of getting the recording equipment caught on camera.

Lighting compromises – It will take a lot longer to light a multi-camera shoot than it would a single camera production because more of the scene will be on show. A better lighting set up would be achieved if the cinematographer only had to focus on how the scene would look from one camera angle. Also it is important to remember there are more people on set and avoid placing lights in places that could cast shadows across a scene.

Cost – Initially equipment costs were what prevented multi-camera set ups from being used. However in recent years equipment costs have lowered. Multi-camera may in some cases be the cheaper option nowadays if you consider the amount of money spent on locations, crew, and actors in a much longer single camera production.
