ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for searching a recording medium of an electronic still camera to determine a record state of a plurality of recording tracks of the recording medium. Electric signals are recorded on the recording medium in accordance with an actuation of a record starting button. The searching apparatus includes a record state detector which detects whether electric signals are recorded on respective recording tracks of a recording medium. The detected record states of the respective recording tracks are stored in a memory. A release detector detects the operation of a shutter switch, while a vacant track retrieving device suspends the operation of the record state detector and retrieves a vacant track from the memory when the shutter switch is actuated during the detecting operation of the record state detector.
