IIRC one of the cameras can take 720P images at 10FPS which is adequate since it's not going to be a very action packed video. They'll get to it eventually though. The slow uplink is an issue but having local storage available in orbit around Mars really does help a lot when they can use it. It's also important though the camera works in that environment so they can't pickup a nice camera from Amazon and duct tape it on. Just about everything they use is either custom or hold-overs from previous missions.
