Recover Deleted Photos from an SD Card

Nowadays, more and more people are using digital cameras for capturing some of their most valuable moments in life. Losing any of these photos, is highly disturbing to the user.

The useful, but dangerous delete button present in digital cameras is responsible for majority of the data loss. The situation in which, a user accidentally clicks the delete button, and ends up deleting the photo file, is a common occurrence. However, there are other reasons due to which, the image files might get deleted / lost.

Other common reasons for the loss / deletion of photo files are:

  1. Accidental formatting of the  SD card that holds the image files.
  2. SD card or hard drive corruption.
  3. Interface, or file transfer errors.

The most common question that comes to any user’s mind, under such a situation is,“Is it possible to recover those photos which were accidentally deleted?” .

Yes!, lost or deleted digital photos can be recovered. When a file is deleted, only the file table entry of that file is deleted, and not the file as a whole. Hence, photo recovery is possible, provided you take certain precautions,

  • Avoid taking any more pictures with the SD card from which you want to recover the data.
  • Remove the SD card from your digital camera, and secure it in a safe place.This avoids further usage of the SD card, hence, increasing the chances of photo recovery.

Deleted Data Recovery

Deletion of files is something that we regularly perform while using our PC. We sometimes end up deleting an important file. In majority of the cases, the files are deleted due to accidental deletion. The types of files that get deleted vary from text files that occupy minimum disk space, to audio or video files, that can occupy many megabytes of data.

Files that get deleted are directly sent to the Recycle Bin, from where they can be recovered, using the Restore button. There are some instances, when the files bypass the Recycle Bin. This occurs when the Recycle Bin settings are changed. There are other occasions when we empty the Recycle Bin, and end up losing all the data. Deleted data recovery software comes in handy under such situations.
