Recover Images From CF Card Using Cameras

If you use a camera using CF cards, you must be familiar with the fact that these storage media, in spite of their data safeguard technologies, are not always loss-proof in all conditions. Certain mishandling commitments can damage and corrupt the card making it inaccessible.

Once your card is inaccessible due to corruption, the images you store on them are practically irretrievable which is tantamount to saying that they are lost. Images lost from your camera in this way are normally considered lost forever. If you already have a backup file of these images, your computer's Backup utility may be your recovery solution. But if this is not the help, use some specially developed image recovery software.

Suppose, you accidentally switch your camera off while images on your card are being transferred to the computer. You are afraid if anything has gone wrong. But now, when you put your camera on and try to continue the transfer process, it turns out clear that there is not image visible on your camera. Your monitor rather shows you some error message telling you that your card is damaged, corrupted and needs reformatting. So, you are at a loss!

Cause:

If you improperly interrupt the active data transfer or read/write process of your camera data, it will certainly terminate the process improperly causing damage to the storage media. Thus the card having become unusable, the images on it are practically lost. And on the other hand CF cards being not part of the computer or camera, data lost from them do not go to any storage media of the computer or camera in visible or invisible form.

Solution:

There are two possible solutions. The first is the computer's Backup facility. This facility is usable to some satisfactory extent if you have a backup file made already of the images prior to their loss. To run this program you need to reformat your card first, too.

If a backup file is not available, or if Backup utility cannot help, use some magically powerful digital image recovery software. Such programs are written using the latest data recovery technologies to cater to the image recovery needs of the time.
