Question about Time Stamps

I have a question about time stamps.  I usually bring with me two or more cameras in the field of sport photography, and I want to merge the photos taken by these cameras by sorting them chronologically.  Nowadays, these cameras typically take 20-40 fps (or as many as 12 fps).

The command line
exiftool -ext .CR3[/.ARW] -r -AllDates -common -csv Source > Filelist.csv
would extract 3 time stamps up to second.  Is it possible to extract data in centiseconds or milliseconds?

I have subsequently successfully prepared a DOS command batch to generate a proper formatted CSV file, but the output files did not store the centisecond data.  I am still trying to figure out the issues.

The command batch is as follows:
exiftool -ext .ARW -r -d "%%Y:%%m:%%d %%H:%%M:%%S%%3f" -AllDates -common -csv 100MSDCF > 100MSDCF.csv
exiftool -ext .CR3 -r -d "%%Y:%%m:%%d %%H:%%M:%%S%%3f" -AllDates -common -csv 100EOSR5 > 100EOSR5.csv

The two output files put .000 in %3f portion of the time stamps' fields, such as 2025:01:19 07:04:40.000.

If anyone could point out or resolve the issues, kindly advise me.  Many thanks
