A recording apparatus for performing information recording using formation of marks by focusing a first light with an objective lens at a given position in a recording layer included in an optical disc recording medium, includes: a rotation driving unit; a focus servo control unit for condensing a second light on a reflection film and for controlling a position of the objective lens; a recording position setting unit for setting an information recording position of the first light in a focus direction; a tracking servo control unit for controlling a position of the objective lens; an eccentricity amount estimating unit for estimating an eccentricity amount of the optical disc recording medium; and an eccentricity estimation amount acquisition control unit for acquiring an eccentricity estimation amount for each rotation angle within one revolution of the disc.
