So I’ve made the hugely stupid mistake of forgetting to copy a load of photos off a CF card, proceeded to format it, and then fill the card with video files from a gig I went to over the weekend. Is there any way at all of recovering the photos?!
Generally speaking, it is difficult to recover the overwritten photos ,try ueing tools to scan them in depth, if the photos can not be scanned , that means there is no possibility to restore them back .
If your photos have been overwritten, it seems very difficult to recover them. But you can still try data recovery tool, as it’s not sure whether they can be recovered, you can try the free program, Bitwar Data Recovery. Hope you can get back your photos.
