Again, the Tascam stays in sync for at least 30 minutes without 
requiring a Genlock. It's the minimum a device like that should be 
able to do, they are designed for musicians originally and you don't 
want the recording go off-beat by 1/24th of a second after 5 minutes 
already, right? That's what the Zoom does and it's really bad. I'm 
not ditching Zoom though, they make great pre-amps/effect boxes for 
electric guitars.

And all 24fps camera capture at 23.976 fps exactly. Have some trust 
in modern technology please :-)

(could someone pls explain briefly the reason for 23.976 instead of 
24fps? I keep forgetting)
