Abstract
A recording apparatus for performing information recording using formation of marks by focusing a first light with an objective lens at a given position in a recording layer included in an optical disc recording medium, includes: a rotation driving unit for rotating the optical disc recording medium; a focus servo control unit for condensing a second light which is different from the first light on a reflection film, and for controlling a position of the objective lens so that a focal position of the second light follows the reflection film; a recording position setting unit for setting an information recording position of the first light in a focus direction by changing the collimation of the first light; a surface wobbling amount estimating unit; and a surface wobbling estimation amount acquisition control unit for acquiring a surface wobbling estimation amount for each rotation angle within one revolution of the disc.
