For those in the know, are wifi video doorbells and outdoor security cameras mutually exclusive? My dad purchased a wifi video doorbell for over $200 but I'm thinking he may be better off with a video surveillance system.

He's enamoured with the remote response feature. He thinks it'd be great for his home security to pretend he's at home when answering the video doorbell, when he's actually just talking into his phone while out and about. I'm thinking this feature sounds better than real world usage, and betting that there's likely some significant lag and delay involved.
