Best Camera for Side of House

Hi, new to the forum, I'd like to get some recommendation on the best camara to use for this location.

I currently have a DS-7608NI-M2/8P NVR and x4 DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL cameras, 2 front and 2 back of the house.
on install the junction box the cable was run for an extra camera to cover the side access to the house, (the reel of cable is visible in the photo) and yes, I'll have to chop some of the obstructions back as well.

The original plan was to purchase a G3 4mm mini bullet in that location, however the system was installed at Easter, and as yet I've not seen the 4mm versions come into stock anywhere. so I'm considering options.

1) hold off doing anything and want for the 3mm G3 mini bullet.
2) go with the G2 version of the mini bullet.
3) install a 4mm G3 turret

my preference is that given I've got all G3 cameras at the moment would be to have a G3 for this location, it's not urgent that I install the 5th camera, but I'd like to finish the set up at some point this year. are there any benefits of a mini bullet vs turret for this location?

appreciate any thoughts or opinions?

I'd go with the 4mm G3 turret. One benefit of the new G3 is that (unlike the previous model) you can rotate the camera 90 degrees to portrait/corridor mode without it affecting your events. That will result in less blind spot directly beneath the camera and less wall/fence in view.
