Tell how to recover deleted photos from a camera, my wife and I were on vacation, we did a lot good photos, we arrived home and immediately called our friends, connected the camera to the computer and looked through all the photos on the monitor, they didn’t think of copying everything to the computer’s hard drive at once, and there was no time for that, the guests came, you know.

How to recover deleted photos using TestDisk
Friends, a friend of mine recently had a similar situation; he also accidentally deleted photos on his camera’s memory card, and together we quickly restored them. Our article is about how we did this. When restoring we used free program PhotoRec. Many may notice that there is more free utilities We also have articles written on photo restoration and about these programs, for example, and, Restoration or Undelete Plus, but in my personal opinion, PhotoRec works a little faster.
For fans of paid software, we also we will restore deleted photos graphies from the camera using the best data recovery program R-Studio.
Friends, among novice users there is an opinion that recovering deleted photos from memory cards, partitions hard drives, flash drives, CDs, you can only use these powerful programs like R-Studio or, as well as (separate articles have been written about working with these powerful programs), but this is not so, all of the above programs will actually cope with this task, but there are also free utilities that will work no worse than example PhotoRec.

It cannot be said that the process of recovering deleted data (photos, for example) is very complicated, although of course a lot depends on the circumstances, the most important thing is that no other information is written to the memory card with deleted photos, for example, if after accidentally deleting photos from camera, this map The memory was in operation and there are now other photographs on it. But even in this case, you and I have every chance to recover deleted photos.
Well, now let's return to the question of how to recover deleted photos from a camera.
So, we connect the camera to the computer via a USB cable and we see this picture: the memory card is absolutely empty, there is absolutely nothing on it. My friend, who owns the camera, has long said goodbye to his photographs in his thoughts and there is absolutely no hope in his sad look.
Know that there is a chance of photo recovery even when file system on the flash drive is not detected at all and is designated as RAW (undefined file system).
Let's go to the website of a wonderful program specializing in restoring deleted partitions hard drive TestDisk, it also includes another good utility Photorec, we will restore photos using it. So, click on the TestDisk Free download button, if you have Windows 64-bit, select your version of Windows.
The program is downloaded in an archive, unzip it, Photorec works without installation and is located in the TestDisk folder.
First of all, we create a folder on the computer’s hard drive, in which we will save the restored photos, let, for example, this folder be located in the root of the drive (C:) and called restored photo (restored photos).
Under no circumstances should you restore deleted files to the same media from which you are restoring damaged information.
We launch the Photorec utility; managing the program is not complicated. We are immediately asked to choose required disk, using the arrows on the keyboard, select our memory card and press Enter.
The program determines the choice of partition itself, you will probably have FAT-32, but our flash drive is formatted in FAT-16, then press Enter on the keyboard.
The Photorec program will also determine the type of file system that was previously on the memory card itself, leave Other and press Enter.
Here, friends, be careful, if you select Free, the free space of the camera’s memory card will be scanned and only deleted photos will be restored, but if you select Whole, the program will try to restore everything it can and on the entire partition, the number of recovered photos will also include non-deleted photos, you must Note that the scanning time will increase slightly. This method Whole should be used if the partition is damaged, for example the file system of the memory card is defined as RAW or another option - other pictures have already been recorded over the deleted photos.
So, first of all, try the Free option and press Enter.
Now we need to use the arrows on the keyboard to select previously created this folder restored photo,
into which the Photorec program will restore erased photos, we created this folder in the root of the system partition (C:), and here is our folder. Press Enter and enter it.
To start the photo recovery process, you and I need to click on English layout keyboards key C, (if you need to exit to the previous window, press Q), as we see, the process of restoring deleted images has begun.
No more than 20 minutes passed, go to the folder C:\restored photo\in it the program created another folder recup_dir.1 All the necessary photos were restored, in addition, there were five times more restored photos than needed, PhotoRec restored even those photos that were deleted several months ago, our program also restored a sufficient number of well-playable video files with the .mov extension. My friend did not even hope for such a result and the expression on his face is completely different.
How to recover deleted photos using R-Studio
Now it’s R-Studio’s turn, launch the program, in the main window, in the left part of it “Disk Panel” all drives located in the system are shown: hard disks, divided into logical partitions, USB drives, memory cards, DVDs, the right window, in turn, provides comprehensive information about the media we have selected - name, cluster size, and so on.
We indicate our memory card and click Scan,
in the settings window you can leave everything as default: Search for known file types and Detailed view, click Scan.
By the way, the settings can be changed; the program is made very convenient in this regard.
R-Studio takes more time to scan deleted files, since the program is universal and recovers almost all known file types, and in the settings we specified Search for all known file types. The entire process is displayed on the right side of the window; sectors of the hard drive are displayed as colored squares. The process of scanning deleted files has ended, let's see what the program can restore for us.
We double-click with the right mouse on Extra Found Files - this is all the data found that the program was able to associate with any file structure.
In this window, you and I can go into each folder and view files that can be recovered,
As for photos, before recovery, you and I can even view them in a special viewer; if the photos we need are found, we can tick them and restore them individually, or we can restore everything. As we see R-Studio program I even recovered video files with the .mov extension that were shot on a camera and deleted more than a month ago.
We look through the contents of all folders in the left window and mark the necessary checkboxes, then click Restore marked.
The program prompts you to select a location to save, for example, select C:\Users\Documents\R-TT\R-Studio and click Yes.
and go to this folder, as we see all the necessary photos have been restored.
So we can say that both of our photo programs recovered almost the same number of photos, but the R-Studio program recovered a little more video files. In any case, we are pleased with the result.
