Absolutely.  All depends on what you're willing to spend.  Don't expect
a $50 Costco "home security package" to do the trick.  Something with
good low-lux performance and a really fast (ie. large-maximum-aperture)
lens are preferable.  A motion-triggered floodlight on the area is a lot
cheaper and probably more effective though, for both capturing the image
with a cheaper camera, and for simply "discouranging" the vandals in the
first place.
