My technique for dealing with the things is twofold: (1) when I see a camera light ahead that is green and has been so for a while, I pull over to the curb, so I won't obstruct traffic, and wait until it goes red. Then I drive up to it, ready to go through when it changes to green again; or
(2) avoid the things entirely by driving another way. Not easy to do in a city with the finest of Third World roads, when you care about your car.
I would never have the patience to do #1, and I wouldn't do # 2 either, as my travel time is generally at a premium. I just approach controlled intersections ready to stop before the light turns red (here, if you enter the intersection on a yellow and it turns red while you're still in the intersection, you're okay).
