A good camera system discreetly deters crime
Security cameras hold a conflicting stake regarding form vs. function. On the one hand, you need your security cameras to be easily seen to avert a break-in. On the other side, you don't want them to be an eyesore to your house. A badly attached camera, or one doesn’t fit the space, may hinder your home's aesthetic.
Luckily, there are plenty of discreet cameras that can still be a hindrance to criminals. A professionally hung wireless security camera can easily hang under your gutters or reside on a desk without being noticeable -- unless you need it to. But, if you buy a security camera from Vivint that comes with a light or LED ring when active, it will stick out to lurkers, scattering them far away.
