> it's for stylistic/cinematography reasons. Yes. One classic example is in a scene with two people speaking, you have two different camera angles to switch focus between them. More generally, film makers who want to focus / depth-of-field effects very often do so with two cameras / takes where the focus is already set. Changing focus in the middle of a shot is very jarring. Incidentally, this is something that became immediately obvious to me when I started to use my DSLR for video.
