Does anyone know a distributor selling really long camera mounts for droping down cameras from a high ceiling? I could use some that are 2 meters (about 7 feet) long. I have seen mounts like that that are hollow (for running the cables inside) and having an entrance/exit openings for the cables at the upper/lower end. At the lower end should of cause be the usual camera mount screw. A plus if they also have mounts that are shorter and longer than 2 meters/7 feet. Anyone?

Still need longer camera bracket/mount, but this one I already have access to. It´s 950 mm long (just over 3 feet): http://www.videotec.com/pages_101.html

Describe your problem and I'll see if I can fix it.

If so one could as well use 100% covert cameras and still get the same (lack of ) effect. Some deterent effect I think there is, an effect that I feel is higher if the customer actively use the system to make as many people as possible aware that they risk getting busted. Of cause not everyone will be detered.

One can argue for or against but on this installation the deterent effect is important so I´ll use a standard type camera. The customer also already as that type installed. Dome too can be 'scary'/deterent but in some enviroments and against a general 'audience' I think they can become too 'invisible'.

If your meant to protect it from tampering, the cameras will still be high enough to be out of reach.

Yea, that is a good thought. Just drill a hole in the pipe and smooting the sharp edges. OR At the flange put a close nipple, then a Tee, then the rest of your pipe. yup that will do it. Thanks for your ideas on making my own mount. But before doing that I´m going to be sure I can´t buy them ready-made. I now have a picture of the exact mount I would want. I sure looks professionally made to me. See attached picture. So where can I get a bunch for myself?

Thanks for your answers. Do you mean the Shaft 856-06 on this page? http://www.panavise.com/f/cctv/cctv_bits.html Since I need them for an installation where I would need like 20+ 2 meter/7feet long mounts I would much prefer a mount that is made in one piece. Otherwise it would take a lot of screwing together, it feels costlier and it also doesn't feel as professional/secure/stable with a "'screw' your own"-mount for an installation like that. And then it also lacks the nice feature of internal cabling. Don't mean to be picky but I know the product I'm after is out there. Just don't know where. Surely someone must have had the same need before. Any clues?
