I think the lighting was supposed to go at that point regardless; it was just too fast. The camera switch, however, was almost certainly in response, just not quite fast enough, given the 7 second delay. In fact, the seven second delay is one of the reasons why I suspect the whole thing was planned. They could have switched out to the full field shot earlier had they wanted to. Eirther they meant to show it, or someone in the booth wasn't paying enough attention.
