Marc,
Thanks for the help.
I have to say that I've yet to see picture and sound durations exactly match. IIUC, for them to match, camera and sound would have to start and stop rolling at exactly the same time, and that's *very* rare. [Michael beat me to it, LOL!

Thanks for mentioning the frame rates.
But I've checked them and they do match.
BTW, it's funny, in a sad way, but I just took me over three hours tonight to sync a day's worth of sound. Not only were the timecodes way off. But the filenaming, slate writing or reading were wrong about ten percent of the time. So it's really hard to sync sound and picture when the slate isn't accurate or says 77A but the person reading it says 77B and the BWF is named 78B. Figures that it was Day 13.
Thanks again everyone for the help!
