When TV system is set to [NTSC] and the frame rate is 30p or 60p, gaps between the actual time
and the time code occur during extended periods of recording because there is a slight difference
between the number of frames per second of the time code and the actual frame frequency of NTSC
image signal. Drop frame corrects this gap to ensure that the time code matches the actual time. The
first frame numbers (the first 2 frame numbers for 30p, or the first 4 frame numbers for 60p) are
removed every minute except in every tenth minute. Time code without this correction is called non-
drop frame.
