What about an indicator that shows when someone is using the camera?(but in Hardware so it can't be hacked). And maybe add a controll panel somewhere so you can disable them as soon as you come home.
I think most people who have security cameras want them recording, because you don't know when you'll need it. Having a camera that records when you know it needs to be means you already know there's something going on, which is often the opposite case for a security camera which is to notify you when something you don't know it's happening happens, or at least something you don't expect.
That having been said, I don't have one because I'm not nuts, and if I did I'd at least cover it before changing in front of it, but whatever I guess!
