I don't see any problem with giving the officer complete control over the camera.
If the cameras are easy to use and reliable and such, the officers should be demanding that they be available, it will only make their testimony more credible.
(to the extent they are going to abuse their power, they can just go set the stage for the camera when they are off duty or whatever, so I don't think that is the right case to optimize for)
