^A little wrong statement: you can put in as many frames as you want into a second, that's framerate.

But it doesn't mean that 10000 FPS is necessary slower than 30 FPS. 10000 frames can even capture only a single second, and contain just some more information than 30 frames.

The same reason why recording software cuts down your framerate no matter what it is at other times. So that it doesn't record useless 200 frames + needed 30 or even 25.
