Steps to recover photos using suitable canon photo recovery tool
Now a day’s many people prefer using digital cameras to shoot videos, taking photos etc. These cameras process image information from the sensor by converting them to digital data. This conversion results in 8 or 12-bit color data. Canon, Sony, Olympus are some of the famous manufacturers of digital cameras. Each manufacturer supports their individual RAW file format. Canon store images in JPEG format and store RAW images inside a file with .crw extension. This file is usually used for processing photos and can allow photo’s exposure, white balance and other elements to be manipulated. Some of the older cameras of canon use CRW file format. These RAW files store image data directly from sensor to the memory card that have little in-camera processing. They contain 12- bit color information that gives more data than some other file types. Canon uses a separate software program with the camera that allow to open and process CRW files. You can even save these files to other format that image-processing program use to open. You can view RAW files using Canon Image Browser or by using RAW compatible program. Most of the operating systems allow viewing RAW files in your system itself without opening any RAW conversion program.
When you use RAW conversion program for converting RAW files and if the program does not handle this process properly, this may lead to loss of photos. Using best canon photo recovery software helps to recover deleted or lost photos in typical photo loss scenarios.
Some of the scenarios in which RAW image files are deleted or lost:
Formatting the memory card on Canon camera: Accidental format of memory card by selecting format card option on the Canon digital camera or operating system may prompt for disk initialization when memory card is connected to system, these situations may lead to lose CR2, CRW image files.
Image files lost due to mishandling of camera or memory card: When you switch off the camera during transfer process, using same memory card in different digital cameras or pulling out the memory card when the camera is on may lead to loss of image files.
Other reasons that include in loss of RAW image files are memory card corruption, virus infection, power surge problems, interrupting transfer process from device to another, accidental deletion of the photos while previewing them using “Delete All” button etc.
Hence, backup is to be taken always after immediate transfer of data from memory card to computer. If you have taken backup before only then no need to worry about loss of data.
When backup is not available, I suggest using Remo Recover (Windows) Media edition to recover the media files that bypass recycle bin when they exceed in size. This software has built-in special algorithm to recover photo, audio, video files and digital raw photo files. This software has the ability to recover the photos from SD, XD, MMC memory cards etc. It is capable of recovering media files from formatted partitions, even after re-installing the Windows. When you download demo version, you are able to preview recovered canon image files before recovery.
