Rendering from different cameras

I'm working on creating a visual catalog of the 30+ hairstyles that I have in my library so I can remember which is which. I have a scene setup with G8 in a pose at the origin and four cameras (Front, Right, Back, Left) positioned around her. I load in a new hair, make some surface adjustments, then render from each of the four camera views. Since each render can take 5-15+ minutes (depending on the hair), it's kind of a pain to sit there and watch the render finish so I know when to switch to the next camera and hit Render again. I was curious if this would be something a script could automate for me?

Yes, you could even set each scene up (with surface adjustment, save to a folder, and leave the script to load each scene and render from the required views. There is a recent thread discussing batch rendering which should cover most of the necessary ground.
you could also just copy the position of the other cameras to your first one each frame along the timeline and render an image series
