What is drop frame?Although 30 frames are considered as 1 second in time code processing, the actual frame frequency of an NTSC image signal is 29. 97 frames/sec. As a result, the time code gradually lags behind real time as the recording gets longer. In the drop frame process, the first 2 frames of each second are not recorded except in every tenth minute. Recording without the drop frame process is called non-drop frame recording.
