Well the reader would read as fast as it can.

Let's say that it would read the entire image in 1/120 second, then it is waiting and does nothing another 1/120 second before it starts reading next frame.

The real number would be significantly smaller. Therefore they can not bump the sample rate more then five or six times. And I imagine they are using some intelligent algorithm to evenly space out the captured samples already.
