  The kinematics of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are essential for
understanding their initiation mechanisms and predicting their planetary
impact. Most acceleration and deceleration occur below 4 R$\odot$, which is
crucial for initiation understanding. Furthermore, the kinematics of CMEs in
the inner corona ($<$ 3 R$_\odot$) are closely related to their propagation in
the outer corona and their eventual impact on Earth. Since the CME kinematics
are mainly probed using coronagraph data, it is crucial to investigate how
imaging cadence affects the precision of data analysis and conclusions drawn
and also for determining the flexibility of designing observational campaigns
with upcoming coronagraphs. We study ten CMEs observed by the K-Coronagraph of
the MLSO. We manually track the CMEs using high cadence (15 s) white-light
observations of K-Cor and vary the cadence as 30 s, 1 min, 2 min, and 5 min to
study the impact of cadence on the kinematics. We also employed the
bootstrapping method to estimate the fitting parameters. Our results indicate
that the average velocity of the CMEs does not have a high dependence on the
imaging cadence, while the average acceleration shows significant dependence on
the same, with the confidence interval showing significant shifts for the
average acceleration for different cadences. The decrease in cadence also
influences the determination of acceleration onset time. We further find that
it is difficult to find an optimum cadence to study all CMEs, as it is also
influenced by the pixel resolution of the instrument and the speed of the CME.
However, except for very slow CMEs (speeds less than 300 Kms$^{-1}$), our
results indicate a cadence of 1 min to be reasonable for the study of their
kinematics. The results of this work will be important in the planning of
observational campaigns for the existing and upcoming missions that will
observe the inner corona.
