Fujitac Camera Prob.
Posted by sk76 (307 days ago)
I would like to start off by saying I am a true blonde when it comes to all things techie (& no offence intended to all other blondes out there, I just mean me!).
I was given an old fujitac digital camera (dpc885k 11 model) by a mate a while back, so decided to use it on a trip yesterday. I must have taken approx 39/40 pics on the 2GB memory card when they all disappaeared - it just went back to 1/1.
Can anyone tell me what happened as I do not own the instruction manual. Gutted & annoyed to have lost the pics.
Anyway to retrieve the pics or is it a lost cause? - any useful advice wud be gr8.

Hi there "Dizzy Blonde" <Grin> -> yes, it is often possible to recover from such "disasters"!
Now I don't know what you did - but even if you managed to reformat the storage material - it is sometimes possible to recover some or ALL of you losses.
But whatever you do - ONE THING YOU DON'T DO - is to take even one more picture on to that memory card until you have done all that is possible to recover the original pix you took.
There are programs to recover deleted pix - Google for them - some co$t, maybe some are free.
I think that somewhere I might have squirrelled away such a program in my 2.5GB collection of utilities files.
Suggest you AX PM me with your ph # &/or e'mail add, & if I can find the prog amongst the many hundreds of utilities - I can send it to you.

Hi Grytpype-Thynne
Been on the net and found such a program as per ur suggestion, unfortunately for me, I took a few pics before realising I had lost the lot - so I didn't have any luck retrieving the old pics. Just found the 5 or 6 pics I took after!!
Soooo annoyed with myself but oh well...stupid me;)

"Normally" the pix files are marked in such a way that you can't [normally] see them - but they are still there & can be retrieved.
Also - on a "Viagra" {Hard} Disk, the unwritten areas will be used up first before any overwrite is done on the area where the deleted [pix] files are located.
Thus, I am puzzled as to why this could happen with a 2GB Storage space - that's a huge amount of space for pix.
