Which makes me wonder why they bother with the SD card at all. What was it meant to be storing? If it is not intended to be the real storage area, why not just have it in a loop, constantly over-writing the oldest material?
The camera was an off the shelf part (from a very specialty shelf I suppose). It had an SD card built in because some people might not have a thing to stream to; it's probably good for demos and cheap enough to be good for a bullet point. Given the rest of the components inside they probably had enough margin that they weren't optimizing for costs. The value add was in the pressure vessel, and that seems to have mostly worked.
