@Marcello: I can think of several reasons actually, at least for me. Others may differ in their opinions, but… 1. There are times when I want the picture to be as sharp as possible and if the camera is moving at all (i.e. hand held) you can lose some of that sharpness. On a tripod, I’m minimizing that movement as much as possible. 2. For video, there’s nothing worse than a shaky picture and in this video that I posted there’s no way I could have kept the camera steady AND adjusted the focus of the lens for a minute.

What’s the point of buying and carrying an expensive very fast
lens AND using a tripod?

(i know it’s a silly comment, but the picture isn’t showing in my browser, so i can’t comment on it)

It is like a moving object, great example of depth of field for video and still camera
