An information recording and reproducing apparatus is disclosed, wherein a hard disk drive or a flash memory in a video camera is accessed by a personal computer having a control program for the recording and reproducing process, through a USB-I/F circuit kept on. A CPU in the video camera, on the other hand, is connected to an external dubbing optical disk having a control program for the recording and reproducing process, through a SATA-I/F circuit only in the case where a user command is given through a switch or power is supplied from an AC adaptor. As a result, the connection with the personal computer is established at an arbitrary timing, and the I/F circuit of the external optical disk can save the power consumption.
