Unfortunately it doesn't. It tries to respect whatever the camera source 
can produce to avoid stretching the picture.

In case you really want to do that it should still be possible by 
setting and encoding profile with the resolution restriction in the caps.

You can check the *-supported-caps properties of camerabin or you can do 
a small launch line with:

GST_DEBUG=*CAPS*:6 gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src ! fakesink

And check the caps returned by your source element. Remember to replace  
v4l2src with your source element in case you are using something else.
