Why can the Mars probe only take pictures, but not video?

After the Mars probe arrived in Mars, it sent back a lot of useful information, but careful netizens found out why the probe sent back photos instead of videos. It's not impossible. You know, a movie is actually a moving picture of 24 frames. If a lot of pictures are combined, it is actually a video, but for the Mars probe, because its shooting angle on Mars is very different from that on Earth, it is more troublesome to make a video, so I am too lazy to do so.

Take the recent American Insight as an example. It has a 40-degree camera. In the lower part of his lander, a 120 degree camera was installed to help them complete some routine operations. The photos taken by these two instruments are sent back to Earth through color sensors, which shows us a colorful world of Mars. And before that, he also sent a photo, which is the blue sunset scene of Mars. For these detection devices, it doesn't really matter whether the video can be sent back. Monitoring equipment and camera equipment are mostly used to help it monitor the surrounding environment and ensure its safe operation. Although it is not difficult to shoot video, it will undoubtedly increase the workload, which is necessary but unnecessary for the detector, and it is necessary to know that Mars is far away from the Earth, and every transmission needs to consume a lot of electricity. It is obviously not cost-effective to shoot videos in succession. More photos can help people understand the current situation of the Mars probe. Moreover, we can find from Voyager 1 that video is not the mainstream way of communication in the universe, and sound and pictures are more intuitive, concise and convenient, because they can store more things and carry more information. For example, sometimes we find that if a photo is full of information, it is far more direct than using video to express it.
