Adhesive "camera tape" - is typically placed around the joint between the body of the film magazine and the magazine cover to ensure that no light leaks in to ruin the film. Film magazines have excellent light traps, but on a multi-million dollar feature film it's best to be cautious. Magazines hold between 400 and 1000 feet of film, so a ruined roll can spoil many takes and a lot of shooting time. Also, it is normal procedure to put strips of camera tape over the latch or latches that open the film magazine to indicate that the mag is loaded. Other than that, strips of tape are placed on the camera body and magazine so the assistant can write down what filters are loaded and/or what type of film is in the mag so that every member of the camera department is able to get this information at a glance. The uses I've listed are standard operating procedure on any film set and are used on any make of camera, not just Panavision.
