I have a new PTZ mounted about 15-20' up a large oak tree. I want to wrap the white parts of the housing in a grey camo tape/vinyl wrap to help it blend in and not look quite as massive as it is. Will this cause problems with overheating or anything else? I've seen some smaller cameras with wraps on this page - what's recommended? Tape or a legit vinyl wrap? Camera is mounted on the east side of a tree so it's in the sun all morning, shade rest of the day - south east US, so it gets into the upper 90s during the summer.
Camo vinyl wrap / tape?

Shouldn't be an issue.

OK, the camera arrived today in record time. It was shipped last Friday from China and arrived at my house here in SoCal at 10 am. Fastest time yet for me. 
Thank You Andy for the fast service. I have the camera set up on my test bench and have started the camouflage process. I have done the top half and so far it looks like a military helmet. Here is a picture.
Edit: I thought I had a POE injector that would work with this camera. However it does not work so I had to order another one. 75W this time to make sure.

Like Tiger said, I've wrapped mine in gorilla tape camo style several times. The thing is, it doesn't last in the weather. You'll have to re-wrap it every fall. The long term solution is paint. Youtube vids will show you how to pattern it so it blends in with the oak pretty easily even if you have no talent.
