Yo can define a VLAN for each kind of device, so you have a VLAN for cameras separated from the IoT one.
You may do it this way for two reasons:
1 - You can easily define firewall rules for each VLAN so no VLAN can see the others
2 - You can access a group of devices o services using an appropiate gateway
In case of IoT devices, you may use Openhab, Home Assistant or Domoticz to access the devices.
In case of the cameras, you can use Shinobi, Motioneye or Zoneminder to access them and avoid using the cloud of the camera manufacturer.
This way, none of the cameras nor IoT devices can access the Internet and you still have access to them through the gateway.
