Abstract
An image capturing apparatus using a limited-rewriteable storage medium is disclosed. The image capturing apparatus writes generated image data in the limited-rewriteable storage medium at the time of shooting processing. On the other hand, an internal memory in the image capturing apparatus holds management information such as a FAT and directory entry. The apparatus writes the management information in the limited-rewriteable storage medium after the contents of the information are determined.
