## {% linkable_title Camera Types %}
There are two available camera types "Avatar", which is the default, displays the Skybell avatar image.
It is periodically updated with a fresh image. The other type is "Activity", which displays a snapshot from
the latest event (motion, bell, or on demand) captured by the camera. You may show either camera, or both, by
specifying its name under monitored_condtions. It's recommended, but not required, to set either avatar_name or activity_name
if you are showing both cameras so you can tell them apart. The name will be appended to the skybell device name.
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml with both images
camera:
- platform: skybell
monitored_conditions:
- avatar
- activity
activity_name: "Last Activity"
```
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml with just last activity image
camera:
- platform: skybell
monitored_conditions:
- activity
```
