Stopping motion on the RED for Stills

So, the silly gentleman with a ping pong racket in one hand and a tennis ball in the other is non other than me.  I may look still enough, but I'm giving my best Boris Becker swing impression I can. I did a quick camera test to see the motion stopping ability of the Red.  If you can get 24 frames per second you can get exactly the moment you want, right?   60 fps would be even better. Right? Well maybe and maybe not.  I'm now certain that there is still something to be said about a photographer going for one frame and getting it as opposed to just "filming" it and hoping the exact action happens at one of those 24 stops in a second.
