To provide a video recording apparatus capable of displaying a lighting status of a luminescent equipment even when the luminescent equipment for repeatedly light-limiting the cyclic flashing is included in the imaging range.

The apparatus for recording the imaged video data includes: a flashing timing detectors (102, 103) for detecting the flashing timing of the luminescent equipment for emitting the light when lighting as flashing; and a data processor (30) for generating the picture image data for recording from the imaged video data at the predetermined frame timing in accordance with the lighting timing of the flashing timing.
