You don't want 60 fps. The reason is that your image will start looking like a soap opera instead of a movie.

 

I'd actually love to see someone provide a detailed explanation with examples of the "soap opera effect" when discussing higher frame rates instead of just throwing out the phrase "soap opera" and thinking that settles it. It's the kind of FUD that makes people think the new Hobbit film is going to look bad because it's being shot at 48fps.

A higher frame rate does not automatically mean a "video-y" soap opera look. NFL games are shot at 60fps, and do not look like a soap opera on my TV. Same with the evening news.
