Abstract
In an electronic still camera operable with a memory card or similar storage medium removably mounted thereto, a first controller causes, before a continuous shoot mode or similar mode operation begins, a memory card to develop attributes information particular to and stored in the card to a second controller. The attributes information include one representative of a storing speed available with the card. Then, the first controller selects a clock frequency of a clock signal which matches the storing speed and provides the card with a reference for operation. The first controller generates a clock signal having the clock frequency selected and sends it to the card together with image data representative of a scene. As a result, the image data are written to the card at a speed synchronous to the frequency of the clock signal.
