A video doorbell is great protection for your doors, but what about the rest of your home? That’s where security cameras come into play. The bigger, badder cousins of video doorbells, their presence on the exterior of your home can be an even better crime deterrent, simply because they’re a more obvious visual indicator that your property is being surveilled.

Indoor security cameras, meanwhile, will serve as a second line of defense. They can also identify the source of weird sounds you hear in the night, back up your insurance claims, and protect your family from people you hire to work in your home (nannies, house-cleaners, etc.) who turn out to be untrustworthy.

Even if you already have a camera or two around your house, there’s always some angle that’s not covered. You might also want to replace aging camera with one that has more up-to-date features. Or perhaps you’re looking for a gift for a friend or family member. You can pick one up on Cyber Monday for a great price.

Some outdoor security camera have integrated spotlights that can offer color night vision, or floodlights that illuminate a scene as well as monitor it. These models typically depend on a hardwired connection to your home’s electrical wiring, although there are some exceptions (as noted below).

The best deals we’ve spotted are organized below by manufacturer and then price, with floodlight cameras segregated out.
