Abstract
A camera for recording images on a photographic film in a cartridge and for recording selected ones of such recorded film images on a magnetic tape having tracks corresponding to image data files and image identification data for each image data file in a cartridge is disclosed. The camera receives a cartridge which can contain either photographic film or magnetic tape. Optics are provided for recording an image of a subject on the photographic film when a photographic film cartridge is disposed in the cartridge. A digital image of a subject is stored as an image is being exposed on the photographic film. The camera is adapted to receive a cartridge containing magnetic tape for selectively recording files representing selected images from the image storage means onto the image data file tracks and image identification data onto the image identification data tracks of the magnetic tape.
