Hello guys,

I took a bunch of pics for my annual dinner and a save it to my frens laptop before transferring them to mine last few weeks.

Since then I have no luck viewing them, all of the pc i tried are unable to determine what sort of file my photos have become.

My boss are asking for them quite a few time edi....

Can someone help me determine what sort of problem i have, and any chance of recovery since the original photos in my cam are already deleted.

Could you view it on your friends laptop by any chance?

no luck. Still unable

I'm out of idea. Never encounter anything like this before

Hmm, chances are that data was lost during export.

Based on my past experience for these type of problem, it's difficult to recover. Even if you try to recover them, chances are that it would not be a full photo.
For example, it would be half a photo or weird colours.

However, you are welcome to try jpeg recovery tools, though I can't recommend you any... Hopefully, a sifu can prove me wrong otherwise.

no data for tat jpeg image..

Does that mean that there are completely no data?

all you can do is retrieve from the sd card.

ur imgae is corrupted

yes..

please re-copy again from source

that's what i feared the most. Coz, the main data are already deleted..

I thought only the header is corrupted..

can still retrieve if not overwritten by another data..

Sorry OT for taking your thread. Just curious.


So, if an image has numbers other than 00 00 00, then there is hope?

Thanks for your reply.

must have file header and data.. (any alphanumeric).. yeah..

Thanks for that, I shall keep that in mind, should I (touch wood) have that problem.

save png better, jpg file is sth like "compressed file" i heard from my fren

all medias (pictures or movies even music) are 'compressed' format..
thats y when you zip or rar the file u get a very very slight different size from the original..

png is not compressed i tot??

.png is a "lossless compression" format... not like jpg/jpeg..
yet is compressed

last time i manage to retrieve back my corrupted photos from sd card. but very tedious process. can't recall both the software i used. but retrieved it back as a different type of file. then i batch change the file type back to raw.

You sure it's Jpeg? and not .CR2?
If you're using CANON (Might work with Nikon) download ImageBrowser EX (Free)
It can process RAW images.

Edit;
Nvm, it doesn't work with ImageBrowser EX.
