Information recording/reproducing apparatus capable of changing its operations based on characteristic data of a camera connected thereto

摘要

An information recording/reproducing apparatus for recording and reproducing information while coupled to a camera includes a memory. A processor is provided for (1) receiving from the camera characteristic data which corresponds to an operational characteristics of the camera, (2) storing the characteristic data in the memory, (3) performing an information recording/reproducing operation based on the stored characteristic data, (4) detecting a change in an operational characteristic of the connected camera, (5) storing in the memory changed characteristic data that corresponds to the detected change in an operational characteristic of the connected camera, and (6) performing a further information recording/reproducing operation based on the stored changed characteristic data
