Yes, I think you stand a good chance of getting something back.? Assuming you're on a unix-like system:? First take an image of the card with dd or something similar.? Then compile this program:? http://www.digitalforensicssolutions.com/Scalpel/ If your photos are jpegs, edit the config file to enable jpeg and then run it against the disk image.? If they're some less common format, you might have to open a sample file in a hex editor and see if it has a recognizable header, and add that header to the config file. The program does a string search through the image and pulls out anything which starts with a particular header.? Obviously this makes it useless for recovering files that don't start with a recognizable sequence of bytes, and also for fragmented files. Please feel free to email me off list if you need a hand. I think the chkdsk-like tools others have suggested could work too, but what's neat about this method is that it is filesystem agnostic (although susceptible to fragmentation). John Finigan
