I am looking into buying (2) exterior camera, thinking about Pro 4 with a smart hub. Will the smart hub save any picture on the hub that I might need to save. I'm not interested in buying a security system.
Also, not sure if the 5 camera is better?

The smarthub does support the direct access to local storage. You'd need to put add a flash drive (at least 16 GB) to the system.
While some people here do use this feature instead of a subscription, IMO it isn't a very good user experience.
- Recordings can only be viewed in the app - not the web browser
- Recordings can only be viewed from the primary account - not shared "friend" accounts
- No ability to take snapshots or make manual recordings
- No thumbnails - videos need to be downloaded to the phone to view.
- Remote access requires router setting changes that many find difficult (and which don't work with some internet service providers).
There are some other features that you lose without a subscription:
- activity zones (unless the Pro 4 is connected to AC power)
- smart notifications.
