I can understand that reaction. I guess something like that would be important to a spray and pray style of photography.

And he was correct. Frames per second (fps) is typically 3 to 12 fps (for still images) depending on the model and configuration. That's entirely unrelated to megapixels (mp) which is now in the 18 to 24MP range for most digital cameras released over the past 3 ish years. If you're unsure of the meaning of something, try google. Or, wikipedia for your exact camera model.

The Nikon 1 J5 shoots 20 FPS of 20.8MP images. Nikon says it can go as high as 60 FPS.

From a November 2016 dpreview of the Sony RX100 V (20MP 1" sensor and 24-70mm equiv. F1.8-2.8 lens):

This is where where Sony really concentrated their efforts in the RX100 V. With extra processing power from the 'Front-end LSI,' the camera is now capable of 24fps burst shooting with full autofocus and autoexposure for 150 JPEGs or ~60 Raw + JPEGs. There isn't a seasoned DSLR in the world that can accomplish this. You can now instantly review the latest image the camera has written to the card, and check focus at 100% instead of receiving some obfuscating error message.

I have to disagree that FPS and MP are unrelated. They are very much related as the FPS and MP per frame determine how much data the camera must be able to flow through the system. Of course buffering and multiple processors can be factors also in how much and how fast the processing can take place.

Best,
