Software to Recover Lost Photos from Canon EOS 50D

If you are a photographer, professional or amateur, you must be, in spite of your utmost professional care, frustratingly experiencing the loss of photos from your storage media. This shock is not exclusive to your, but a common trend in the digital age. However, most photographers are unaware of the basic technicalities of their data loss problems and their recovery. This article will be a savior to them, and to you specially if you use Canon EOS 50D.

Canon EOS 50D has CF Type I and II memory cards for its storage media. These devices, in spite of their data safeguard technologies, can easily get logically damaged and corrupted resulting in data loss. Such loss may be so serious that your computer's data backup program may not be able to help. Then, you need some specially developed photo recovery software.

Suppose, you want to view or transfer your photos. But, you find they are nowhere to be found on your card. Even if you try to access your card some error message like 'The card cannot be used' appears on your monitor repeatedly.

Causes:

The above error message can result from one of the following device handling errors:

removal of the card from the camera or card reader during previous data transfer or read/write process,
unplugging USB from its slot during previous data transfer or read/write process,
switching off your camera during previous data transfer process.

Solution:

There are two possible solutions. To try the first, follow the steps:

reformat your corrupted card to make it logically usable again,
run data backup program inbuilt in your computer.

It should be borne in mind that you should not write any new data on your card before you have recovered the lost photos to avoid risking their getting overwritten. It is technically impossible to recover overwritten data.

If this simple program cannot help, grab the second and last possibility: use a piece of digital photo recovery software. Such programs are written using highly advanced technologies to answer the calls of photo recovery needs of the time.

Thus, Stellar Phoenix Photo Recovery v3.2 recovers lost multimedia files of various formats from almost all storage media. Compatible with Windows and Apple Mac operating systems, this photo recovery application saves the recovered data in a user-specified location keeping the originals intact.
