You can rotate the image of cameras in Genetec Config Tool. Select a camera, go to the Hardware tab, look for Other Parameters -> Image Rotation.

Grest article. Genetec added the ability to create custom views in the latest release, 5.3.

I'm curious to hear how customers respond to corridor format? I find that a camera in corridor format on a VMS layout with the remaining cameras in 4:3 or 16:9 looks odd with wasted (black) space. Similarly when double-clicking a camera (depends on VMS) to bring the corridor formatted camera to full screen, there is also a lot of wasted (black) space and you must zoom in further to get more detail.
This wouldn't really be an issue or as noticeable (could always rotate the monitor) if the majority of the other cameras weren't in 4:3 or 16:9 "horizontal" format. The only VMS I have found that combats this is DW Spectrum where you can totally customize the layout. Still doesn't solve the (black) wasted space on the sides of the screen when you enlarge the corridor formatted camera (it doesn't actually enlarge that much).

Bosch cameras can now (FW>6.30) do this automatically using the built in gyro sensor.

Everfocus cameras do offer image rotation.
