I bought a 17ep motor from Grizzly on ebay recently, and they are sending it to Olex to perform a motor upgrade on it before sending it back to me.  I plan on getting it upgraded so that it will turn at 60fps.  I know since the 1m has no registration pin it's not as steady as say an ARRIIII High Speed, which does.  I planned on steadying the shots a little in post.  Do I need to wory about damaging the camera by shooting so fast?  I remember reading that an ARRI 2c needs reinforcing to turn that fast.  I only plan on shooting slo-mo once in a while.  The vast majority of shots would be 24fps.  I'm curious to hear others experiences or tips with shooting high speed with a Konvas.
 
Thanks!
