Quoted from KloggMonkey:Cameras are still passive/reactive security. I worked in the biz but don't use them myself only found them to be useful for the who dunnit after the fact The best would be to catch someone casing the place and beef up other means of security
Exactly. Cameras don't provide "protection". They just make it easier for the police to write up a report after whatever happened happened. If you want personal security or protection, get something that shoots and learn how to use it safely and effectively.
