Recover deleted photos
How to recover your data.
By Andy Walker (call4help.ca)

When a photo is deleted from a data card from a camera two things happen.

Inside the file allocation table, the allocation chain which stores the location of the beginning of the photo data on the card as well as the end and everything in betwnee gets zeroed out. That address is destroyed.

Also, the name of the file in the directory listing gets modified s that the first character of the file name is overwritten with a marker that show it has been deleted.

So if the file was called
andy

it would be written in hexidecimal langauge as
0x616e6479

But when the file is marked as deleted, the "a" which is marked as 61 in hex is replaced with the hex code e5 so the file appears as
0xe56e6479

You can use any undelete program to look for the data and recover it under one condition that space where the "deleted" file is not used to write more data.

So don't take pictures with the camera if you need to undelete some data as the new picture will over write the old deleted file data.

Sandisk have a recovery program for a lot of file types:

They included a mini disk with a recovery utility with a Compact Flash card I bought. Not sure if they are still doing that though.
