Abstract
There is a first writing mode in which data is written to a recording medium in a first recording unit, and a second writing mode in which data is written in a second recording unit whose size is greater than the first recording unit. In an interval recording mode in which a predetermined recording time worth of moving image data is repeatedly recorded each time a predetermined interval period elapses, moving image data is recorded to the recording medium in the first writing mode having the smaller recording unit. This makes it possible to effectively use the recording area of the recording medium in the case where moving image data obtained by interval shooting is recorded to the recording medium.
