PURPOSE: An information-recording apparatus is provided to quickly perform beginning of recording and photographing by reducing the waiting time in performing finalization. CONSTITUTION: An information-recording apparatus includes a recording unit for recording information on a recording medium(4); a finalization unit for performing finalization to the recording medium; a decision unit for deciding whether to perform the finalization by the finalization unit; and a control unit for controlling the information-recording apparatus. If the result of the decision unit is No, the finalization is not performed. The decision unit includes a finalization time estimation unit(7) for estimating a time required for the finalization, and a time comparison unit for comparing a time estimated by the finalization time estimation unit to a predetermined time. When the time required for the finalization time is decided to be greater than the predetermined time by the time comparison unit, the decision unit results in No.
