If you watched the live stream, they had a few pics come back pretty quickly. Video is a LOT of effing data to send that many million miles.

As a retired programmer, I have great respect for them pulling of the landing. I enjoyed watching it. I wish they would have had the budget for cameras on an orbiter.
