Abstract
The video camera apparatus obtains a still image sensing signal with high image quality in a progressive scan mode and is capable of recording onto a recording medium by a recording means which performs recording operation corresponding to an interlace scan mode. An image sensing signal read from a CCD image sensorin the interlace scan mode is recorded directly onto a recording medium by a recording/reproducing sectionthrough a camera signal processing circuit, while an image sensing signal read from the CCD image sensorin the progressive scan mode is converted into an interlace scan signal and is then recorded onto a recording medium by the recording/reproducing section
