I’d deleted photos from the SD card, than I’ve recorded the new ones to the same card. Is there any chance/software to recover the deleted photos?
I went to a number of websites but did not find anyone that would describe a recovery process in such situation.
Thank you

Search this - what software can recover deleted images from an sdhc card? Seem to be several choices.
By the fact that you recorded new files over the old ones I would say not a chance for retrieval.

It depends. If you had a dozen photos and recorded a hundred over them, and if you had a hundred and recorded a dozen over them present two entirely different cases. It's worth a shot. Others may likely have suggestions on recovery software, but I've had reasonable success with Recoverit.

Some of the software if free - worth a try. If the old photos are important, pay for the best, or contact a specialist!

Depends on how much data you wrote, how much was there and how much free space on the card (among other things). Download a copy of Recuva, and give it a try.
I would call the card Mfg. and ask them. They may send you software or want it sent in. It may be if you did not fill the card or formatted it some of the pictures may not be over written.
There is no chance of recovering the deleted files. New data is written over where the old data was. On a separate note, instead of deleting files from your SD card, format the card in your camera.

If the newly recorded photos are in spaces that were already empty on the card, recovery of deleted ones will work just fine. If the newly recorded photos ended up over top of deleted ones, recovery chances are slim to none.
Remember that "deleting" photos from the card does not actually delete them, it just marks that area of the card as "available again" and the new photos then overwrite the old ones, making recovery impossible.
But not trying will guarantee that you don't recover the photos. The program I use (and like very much) for recovery is called 'Recuva' <

Is there any documented proof that “formatting” is better than “”deleting”?
