Reversed image view for a starter. (but if you can get the camera to
reverse the image  your in good)

vibration would be the next thing.. (the breeze around building can be
unpredictable)

night vision with IR flares (that would be a different kind of problem)

I've seen it done inside, in long hallways, (but even then  it had a lot
of short falls)

Best of luck..

These new HD cameras can do wonders, now-a-days, not like the vidicon
tube one's I started with..

      I have a project that involves getting a view of a roof. The
      problem is that the roof is the only place for the camera to be
      mounted and getting the right view is a challenge. So I was
      wondering if a convex mirror were mounted on a light pole and zoom
      in on the convex mirror would provide the necessary view.

      Now I know physically and technically it is possible. What I don't
      know are what are the challenges or unknown problems involved in
      setting this up.

      The camera distance to the convex mirror will be about 60' and I
      will need at least a 60mm lens to zoom in on the mirror.
      <br>
      <br>
      Anyone here ever done this and what are the difficulties
      experienced??
      <br>
      <br>
      Thanks in advance for any insight.
