There are (incorporated as part of the same 2-page spread) details of the Do 335 A-series main and nose-gear undercarriage arrangement.
pp81 shows a photo of the individual camera installation. Though it's taken from underneath the aircraft and there is insufficient view of the aircraft to give a sense of size or relation of the camera to the installation supports on the aircraft.
If the updated edition of the book is on the way, perhaps there will be more details, photos, drawing available.

Hi Geoff,
Yes I do have that book and yes I've seen those drawings and photos. I'm trying to find if the ports for the cameras protruded through the bay doors a little or were flush. I'm guessing flush and that's what I'm going to do with my model parts. As for the landing gear doors, I'm looking for the detail on the inside of the doors themselves. The ones that are attached to the landing gear struts that are mounted on the V3. I found detail drawings for the V1 but I haven't started a conversion yet for that version of the 335.
Thanks.
