Supporting USB-2 doesn't mean that the camera necessarily uses high-speed
(480Mbit/sec).
AFAIK, the only real difference between "USB-1 conformant" and "USB-2
conformant" is that the latter actually passed a test of its ability to
say "no, I can't do high-speed", while the former didn't. The check for
high-speed capability was designed such that it shouldn't cause problems
for USB-1 devices, but individual USB-1 devices weren't actually tested
for this.
