Abstract
In an electronic still camera, an electric signal generated by photoelectric conversion of an optical image of an object is recorded on a recording medium. In consideration of a response time for steadily applying power supply to a recording circuit, power is supplied to the recording circuit only between initiation of a shutter releasing operation and completion of a recording operation, to thereby lengthen battery life when a battery is employed as the power source in the camera.
