Lost images from micro adapter used on Canon Mark 2 (A-7).
Mar 29, 2020 17:26:16 #
I recently took some images of my new grandchild which were recorded on a Kingston MicroSD card. I was able to review the images in the camera. And I was also able to initially pull them up in photoshop on my computer using a newly purchased 'Merkury' card holder. Then, for some unknown reason, the microchip could not be accessed with a message that it (the SD card) had to be 'formatted'. Of course this would wipe out the images I know are on the card. I tried to transfer images to photoshop again using several other transfer instruments and when I did this I was 'informed' that the card could not be read, or that there were no images on it. So does anyone have an explanation for this occurrence. And if the images are indeed 'lost' can anyone recommend a software program that has been tried and is effective in retrieving 'lost' images from damaged or 'infected' SD cards? Incidentally, there is no way they were deleted. Thanks for the help.

Did you forget and put the card in or out with power on?
Lot's of recovery apps out there. The one I use is "Recuva" from Piriform - they have a free trial version so you can see if it will work for you before paying.

Even better: there is a free version.
From everything I've read about, and experienced with that program, one of the best.
Just make sure you don't overwrite whatever is on the card. Once it's overwritten there's no recovering.

I like to pull pictures from the camera by connecting the entire camera to a computer via a USB cord. Of course the card is in the camera meanwhile. Connect the camera, then turn it on. In my case this launches the photo management software from Canon in my computer.

Try putting the card back in the camera to read the files. This worked for me once. I then downloaded from the camera.
Make sure the micro card is seated in the adapter. Remove the micro card from the adapter and reinstall. Try a different adapter.
When you get all of your images off the card reformat the card in the camera
Good luck recovering all of your images

I had that happen with a MicroSD. It was the adapter.

I've tried three adapters.....all the same, and when I reinserted the SD card into the camera, it then also said that it needed to be formatted.

When, after the adaptors didn't work, I did put it back in the camera.....and now the camera can't read the 'files' and says I need to format the SD card.

Clean the contacts on the micro sad card and visually check for damage. Once you have exhausted all your options call the manufacturer and possibly send in to them.

I deleted some imigies too.i was looking for a solution. I wound up buying an extreme pro sdxc uhs-1card which came with a free 2 year rescue pro app to recover what you are trying.i am yet to use it so I do not know how good it is.you may want to look into it.

The images can be recovered. Try some of the suggestions but not too many. One or two. If that doesn’t work send a card to the manufacture, they will re-cover them for you. Good luck

Your computer may not recognize the format your camera has put on the card. That's the case with my Lumix when I plug the card into my win10 Lenovo laptop. Open it with file explorer, and the files are right there. A little disconcerting. Do not reformat the card!
