500/week = 100/day
7 Work hours a day ( we are in the EU, remember?) = 14/ hour
4 minutes per camera for aligning and putting in the sensor shims.......and 
retesting.... if there were only 1 work station for this operation....

Must be more workers and workstations than we saw in that video......or 
else, this really is the maximum capacity......

As a comparison. There were only 3130 M6 Classic 0.85 cameras ever made.  
Not bad to sell 2000 cameras in 1 pent up demand day!

Future production is estimated at a max of around 500 per week. (they 
are after all only a small company)

Cheers
