Ever wondered what the strings were doing when they were plucked?

I think this is a case of "the camera DOES lie" when it gives the impression of a kinked string.

I'm guessing that when the frame rate of the camera lens is close to the frequency of the vibrating string or multiple of it, then the string will appear to have a static pattern or slightly moving? Correct?
