1. An image recording apparatus, comprising: an imaging unit configured to obtain captured image data through capturing; an image configuration determining unit configured to determine an image configuration of image content of the captured image data; an image configuration acquisition control unit configured to execute image configuration acquisition control to obtain captured image data of image content in which the image configuration of the image content of the captured image data corresponds to a determined image configuration; a capturing/recording unit configured to record the captured image data on a storage medium when the image configuration of the captured image data of the image content corresponding to the determined image configuration is obtained through execution of the image configuration acquisition control; a capturing history information holding unit configured to hold capturing history information that is information about image configurations of respective pieces of captured image data recorded by the capturing/recording unit; an image configuration exhaustion determining unit configured to determine whether the image configuration of the captured image data determined by the image configuration determining unit is the same as that of image data that has been recorded a predetermined number of times by referring to the capturing history information; and a recording setting unit configured to prevent recording by the capturing/recording unit of captured image data having the image configuration that is determined to have been recorded the predetermined number of times by the image configuration exhaustion determining unit.
