Having just spent the whole morning shooting a full 2gb card (at the Morton Arboretum near Chicago) I came home to download them. Had a problem with my computer - needed to reboot, forgot to disconnect the card reader and for some reason ended up wiping the whole card. I now have precisely NO photos from my morning. I had some really wonderful pictures too.....
I'm not normally so careless. Very angry with myself right now. |

don't use the card yet!!!!
Unless it's been formatted you may be able to extract the files with something like image rescue!

Yes, I did.... Unfortunately nothing. I put the card back in the camera and it said no images....
Thanks everyone - I hope I can do something... |

try Zero Assumption.
I use it whenever a card has a bit of a fit, and it pulls back stuff from cards that have been re-formatted over and over again - stuff from months ago.

To all of you who so kindly helped with suggestions...
I did it! Bear_Music's suggestion worked. I am pleased to say I can now enter this week's challenge! (Whether it will be worth it, as I'll probably get another sub 5 score, remains to be seen!)
Anyway, thank you everybody - this is a great place. You are all so very helpful.

Now another question....
Having recovered my "lost" files, will the EXIF data be corrupt? in which case, if I enter a challenge would I get DQ'd? I suppose there is that possibility..... |

If you got the file back, it *should* be fine, I would think.

you should be able to check the data prior to submitting. If it all checks out you are good to go.

You don't know how happy I am. Now, if the EXIF data is still in tact then I'll be even happier.
Again, thanks everybody! |

This was one of the reason's I was SOoooo upset about losing everything. Thank goodness I shoot RAW plus JPEG. I think if I shot RAW only I wouldn't be jumping for joy!
