ok -- I took about 300 photos on a 32gb card. (there were still space for about 1000 images)
I did something stupid and erased the card.
I then took 108 photos.
I want the other photos back.
There have been many threads about recovering files from a card (this is a CF card). It seems like the good programs cost money. What are my chances of getting any of the photos back? Would I be spending $60 just to realize that I can't get the files back since I've written 108 files on the card since then?
Is it worth even trying?
thanks for any help you can give!! |

Since you've taken more photos after erasing the card, many of the earlier photos are now overwritten. You may be able to recover some of them, however. Here's a roundup of file recovery software from Maximum PC magazine, many of them are free. Perhaps some can help.

thanks everyone. I tried sandisks recovery program. It looks like I got most of it back. Too late for the challenge, but it's nice to have the pix. :)
