Abstract
In a recording mode, an image signal of a desired object is generated by an imaging unit such as a video camera, and the time difference between the hour of generation of the current image signal and the hour of generation of a preceding image signal is detected by a system controller. Then the image signal and predetermined data based on the result of detection of the time difference are recorded on a recording medium via an optical pickup section. In a reproduction mode, the predetermined data are read out from the recording medium together with the image signal representing the picture of the object, and a predetermined video effect is applied to the read image signal in accordance with the predetermined data. Thus, a multiplicity of pictures shot under any different conditions by a video camera or the like can be reproduced without incongruous appearances respectively
