When an electronic album is created, different images having identical file names are prevented from being recorded on a large-capacity floppy disk. Image files have been recorded on a memory card and on a large-capacity floppy disk in the order of file numbers. When an image file that has been recorded on the first memory card is recorded on the large-capacity floppy disk, the final file number on the large-capacity floppy disk is read out. The file number of the image file that has been read out of the first memory card is changed to a file number that succeeds the file number recorded on the large-capacity floppy disk last. The image file whose file number has been changed is recorded on the large-capacity floppy disk and an electronic album is generated for each type of image.
