Need at least the camera, if not that plus a microphone and speakers, not the lock or bell.

Small and easy to hide, so the camera isn’t stolen, attacked or bypassed.

Unpopular opinion: an actual doorbell.
That won’t record attackers.
Add (offline, regular) camera.
add a vandal proof camera on top
That’s my question.
Ops. Missed the actual details. Sorry. How small you want it to be? Any dimentions?
No specific measurements.

Something like this which has a privacy mode where it rotates and hides could be good.
Vandal proof camera is easy to find, but with privacy mode? I don’t think such product exist yet.
I literally just linked an example.
That’s not vandal proof. What I mean by vandal proof is IK rated, like IK10.

You will have to set the camera pointing default to a non sensitive area, likely ground if you mount it directly above your doorbell, and only tilt up when it get some event triggers like motion (feet), audio (it does have a mic), doorbell (via home assistant), other cameras (mition alerts), or something else.

I can’t remotely see if an important package was delivered with a regular doorbell.
Open the door and look
If your not at home, then it doesn’t matter.
If that is a big problem, one alternative is to get a post office box.
That’s seems like a good idea, considering the plethora of videos online of packages being stolen with an obvious camera watching the thieves.
I also can’t see who took my package with a regular doorbell. But apparently having security cameras on your property is dystopian surveillance.
Having security cameras that malicious businesses sell so they can scrape your data and share video with the police without your informed consent is a dystopian nightmare.
Having your own security system that is only accessed by you and those you intentionally share it with is not.
I think that is the normal choice
