A Muslim must focus on guiding the living and praying for mercy upon the dead. A camera does not reveal the states of those in graves, because that is among the matters of the unseen. Assuming otherwise could lead to spying on the dead, harming them, and speaking ill of them, and speaking ill of the dead has been forbidden.
