A good camera system discreetly deters crime
Sometimes it seems that security cameras diametrically oppose themselves. On the one hand, you may want your security equipment to be easily seen to deter a break-in. On the other hand, you don't want any device to be an eyesore to your home. A poorly attached camera, or one doesn’t fit the space, may hinder your home's look.
Luckily, there are plenty of discreet cameras that can still serve as a repellent. A professionally mounted wireless security camera can easily hang beneath your gutters or rest on anywhere without sticking out -- unless you need it to. But, if you buy a camera with a light or LED ring that turns on when triggered, it will stand out to creeps, scaring them far away.
