1. A recording device for simultaneously recording input image signals on a plurality of photosensitive recording media comprising a substantially cylindrical support member on the inner surface of which the photosensitive recording media are supported, a plurality of mirror surfaces in the form of inclined surfaces of a polygonal pyramid provided within the support member, an acousto-optic modulator for modulating a recording light beam with the input image signals, and a means for guiding the modulated light beam along the longitudinal axis of the cylindrical support member, the central axis of the polygonal pyramid being in coincidence with the longitudinal axis of the cylindrical support member, the mirror surfaces being rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the cylindrical support member with respect thereto, the modulated light beam impinging upon the mirror surfaces at an area including the apex thereof travelling along the longitudinal axis of the cylindrical support member, the mirror surfaces reflecting the corresponding parts of the modulated light beam in different direction dividing the modulated light beam into a plurality of light beams, the divided light beams being focussed on the respective photosensitive recording media scanning the same by rotation about and sliding movement along the longitudinal axis of the cylindrical support member of the mirror surfaces thereby recording the input image signals on the photosensitive recording media.
