Here is my "view" of how to hold on to yours/are cameras....
 First may I be so bold as to say that some of you are "not" hiding your cameras very well!! {these boxes are for bears and other critters} if you are putting your camera on even a slightly used trail, you are running a slight chance someone is going to see it!??
 It wouldn't hurt to venture of into the woods a mere 50 yrds, from the trail and place the camera where No one really travels.
 Especially if your filming over bait!! folks might not see your camera initially, but will start looking around once your "bait' is spotted!!
Also a small camo camera is really hard to spot, even if you are looking for one!! check these out!!    :small as a can of beer!! and an incredible little camera!!!!

Bungee cords, cheap and work well. If someone wants to steal a camera there is not much will stop them in any case. I have lost one in 10 years of running 3-4 a season. Maybe something to be said for password protected cameras.....

Have you used scoutguard cameras? I have been checking them out. I am wondering if they are all that they seem. If so I may have to get a few.

yes sir! I have 2 of them now. I have been real impressed with the trigger speed!!! 2nd best on the market next to the Reconx!! (no joke)
the video length can be adjusted from 1second to 1 min in length, and the lag time as short as 1 second.
the size is awesome, small as a beer can and easily disappear in to the woods
 Here is a few vids from one.

Cool  thanks for the response. All that I have read was the marketing write up. Sounds like they do as advertised. Guess I found my next camera.
