Since we've comfortably transitioned over (successfully) to our new LS9, I'm looking to upgrade our house feed system in our auditorium. Currently, we use a camera set up on a tripod at the end of one of the main entrances. Not to mention the obstruction it causes in an emergency, someone always needs to run down to check it to make sure it's on and functioning before the show starts, at intermission, and so on.
What I'd like to do is permanently mount a camera on the back wall of the auditorium above the sound/lighting booths. It's approx an 80-foot throw to the stage: proscenium opening, 43' wide by 16'.
The purposes of the system:
As mentioned, our current system already has the composite video wiring in place. Could I get suggestions as to possible equipment. For the camera, the only one I've been thinking of has been Sony's EVI-D70. The PTZ isn't required but thought it might be nice to have some basic presets based on need. There would likely be no one dedicated to only camera movement/operation.
Thanks for the suggestions/advice.

The purposes of the system:
- Provide a house monitor feed to ancillary and overflow areas (infastructure already in place).
- Take that feed and store it/stream it to a website (especially school ceremonies/concerts/meetings)
