Do not take any pictures
Do not format the card again
Download and Recuva
Place your card into your computer and let recuva have at it.

I use Lexar memory cards and they sent me a recovery program. Found images 7 years old. Brought back memories.

I think most card manufacturers have their own recovery app.

Sandisk has a recovery. Don't know if it works on everything or not. As long as you haven't recorded more photos should work. BE SAFE!!

If, as stated, you haven't used the card since, I'd lock it until I get a program. May have to be unlocked then, but at least you can't accidentally do something until then. Also, before buying anything, be sure what you did is reversible, quick format versus complete? Is the later reversible?

A quick format simply deletes the file index. A complete format goes a lot farther but I'm not sure if you can recover files after a complete format; never had the occasion to try...

You may or may not be able to restore all of the pictures on the card. If you have written to the card since it was formatted it may still allow you to recover some pictures or maybe not.

I've used Piriform's Recuva and WinRecovery's CardRecovery do a reasonable job.

I wish that I knew that. I formatted my card, and I tried a few free programs, but they didn't work.
