Abstract
Image signals of moving subjects which are imaged by a slit camera, and time information generated by a time information generator after it has been reset by a start trigger signal, are successively stored in and erased from a large-storage-capacity memory on a first-in, first-out basis. After elapse of a predetermined time period after a record trigger signal has been supplied from a record trigger generator, a storage time control circuit controls the memory to stop storing and erasing the image signals and the time information, and keeps the image signals and the time information stored which have been stored before the memory stops storing and erasing the image signals and the time information. The image information of the subjects and the time information associated with the image information can be stored in the memory within a storage time that depends on the storage capacity of the memory.
