Right now, I'm recording the two topics using rosbag and seeing if the messages are aligned. But, I'm not sure if rosbag respects the original timestamps or gives a new timestamp based on when it received the message.

Can you clarify what timestamp you are asking about?

header.stamp of the message. I had recorded /camera/depth/image_raw and /camera/rgb/image_raw from freenect, and expected these 2 sensor_msgs/Image topics to have the same time stamp, but on checking them with rqt_bag I found that the messages were misaligned.
