Abstract

Moving images can be collectively recorded in one file with ease when the moving images are repeatedly captured in the same place or situation. The digital camera which can capture a moving image and record a captured moving image in a file includes a mode setting dial which sets a single recording mode or a continuous recording mode. The captured moving image is recorded in a newly created file when the single recording mode is set by the mode setting dial, and the captured moving image is additionally recorded in an existing file in which a moving image is recorded when the continuous recording mode is set by the mode setting dial. Therefore, when the moving images are repeatedly captured, the moving images can be collectively recorded in one file with ease, and can be also jointed in captured order.
