hear hear! :)
would it be possible to see a picture of the 3 camera mounting locatons? I know it seems basic but it would help the new employees.

It might not be ideal for your hallway example, but is there any value in out-facing corner (270 angle side) mounting? Is pendant really the only/best way to do this?
With the angle being so wide (>170) on some of these mini/microdomes, a corner can work well. It seems a waste to take up a large part of the FOV with a closeup of the wall that they are mounted on, yes/no?
The Honolulu Post Office for instance will accept no surface mounted domes bigger than Tomahawk class ICBM's. Speaking of, have you made it back there for a closer look at the warheads?
