1. A method comprising:
detecting a security event by a processor of a control panel of a security or automation system of a premises, wherein the security event is associated with detection of a short range communication device in range of the control panel;
capturing one or more first still images or videos by at least one camera in the control panel of the security or automation system of the premises, for use in motion detection by the control panel in response to detection of the short range communication device in range of the control panel; and
determining, by the control panel, whether a motion is detected in the one or more first still images or videos captured by the at least one camera in the control panel in response to detection of the short range communication device in range of the control panel; and
starting to record one or more second still images or videos by the at least one camera in the control panel in response to detecting the motion in the one or more first still images or videos that were captured by the at least one camera in the control panel in response to detection of the short range communication device in range of the control panel.
