An ideal camera system subtly deters crime
Security cameras have a conflicting stake when it comes to form vs. function. On the one hand, you may want your security cameras to be front and center to deter a break-in. On the other side, you don't want any device to be unattractive for your home. A badly attached camera, or one that doesn't suit the space, could possibly hinder your home's style.
Thankfully, there are plenty of stylish cameras that can still serve as a hindrance to criminals. A professionally mounted wireless security camera will look clean beneath your gutters or rest on a desk without being noticeable -- unless you need it to. But, if you buy a camera that has a light or LED ring when active, it will stand out to lurkers, scaring them away.
