I don't of any standard addressing this. Neither I know a best practice document on this. But due to my experience, it is a quite common practice to have longer TTL on NS records than on A records. I consider this quite normal, as often you will more often change individual host's IP address than the addresses of your nameservers. Setting longer TTLs on the NS records reduces load on the higher level DNS servers while allowing you to update entries in your zone faster. For example DynDNS uses a TTL of 60 seconds for their customer's A records while having a TTL value of 86400 seconds (1 day) on their NS records.
