Since the dyndns was opened with the first router it will be OK for everything forwarded to and from there. Since the second router is VPNed point to point, only those points get altered, not the points in between, like the first router.
I haven't tried this but it seems like it should work the same as a tunnel opened up by a device on the network, except the device is a router.

That seems to be the easiest, and as Weelok points out the cheapest solution. I will buy another router soon. But one more question. If I use an older Linksys router that I have for the first router, it wouldn't really matter would it? Because if I understand you right the first one would only do the routing and handle the port forwards for the cameras. The second router would be the actual workhorse for the network as far as the wireless and ethernet connected computers, right?
