Digital audio and video devices have clocks in them that they use to determine when to capture an audio sample or video frame. They're generally very precise (as in a particular clock doesn't vary over time), but they're not all perfectly accurate (as in one clock might measure a second slightly differently from another clock). So if you record audio on something like a Zoom recorder and video on a camcorder, there's going to be drift. How long it takes before the drift becomes noticeable...
