1. A video camera apparatus provided with image capturing means, comprising:
- audio communication means including first audio communication means and second audio communication means, the first audio communication means operative for receiving an audio signal from a wireless microphone of a subject through short-range wireless data communication means, the second audio communication means in a form of a built-in microphone operative for directly receiving sound signals from the subject; and
recording means for recording image information of the subject captured by the image capturing means and an audio signal received by the audio communication means,wherein, if a communication state of the short-range wireless data communication means is poor and a number of data-resend requests is greater than a predetermined set value, the recording means switches to record an audio signal input from the built-in microphone of the video camera as an audio signal to be recorded, and if the communication state is recovered, the recording means immediately returns to an original state.

10. A video camera apparatus provided with an image capturing unit, comprising:
-
an audio communication unit including a first audio communication sub-unit and second audio communication sub-unit, the first audio communication sub-unit configured to receive an audio signal from a wireless microphone of a subject through a short-range wireless data communication unit, the second audio communication sub-unit in a form of a built-in microphone operative for directly receiving sound signals from the subject; and a recording unit configured to record image information of the subject captured by the image capturing unit and an audio signal received by the audio communication unit, wherein, if a communication state of the short-range wireless data communication unit is poor and a number of data-resend requests is greater than a predetermined set value, the recording unit switches to record an audio signal input from the built-in microphone of the video camera as an audio signal to be recorded, and if the communication state is recovered, the recording unit immediately returns to an original state. - View Dependent Claims (11)
