In this instance, CBS is the copycat of Fox’s camera trend-setting during the 2020 NFL season. Fox broke out a Sony DSLR camera in December as an additional shot to use on touchdowns, creating a cinematic feeling to its end zone celebration shots.

But again, it’s not certain, since there are other factors involved....
