Recovering files from formatted SD Card
Not all the programs can do it but some do. One of those that CAN recover files after the card was formatted is the mentioned ArtPlus Digital Photo Recovery:
artplussoftware.com/digital-photo-recovery
It's actually free for two more days if you use the coupon PHOTOGRAPHYTALK
There are only two situations when nothing can be done:
1. Something that different camera vendors call with different names, but most use the term "destructive" or "full" formatting, which actually does more than just format the card. It wipes it out with zeros or even random data to make recovery impossible.
Not all vendors offer this option, and out of those that do, to best of my knowledge only Olympus actually offers it by default. So, if the OP is using Olympus... he's indeed out of luck.
2. If you (even without formatting) delete the images and reuse the card to shoot new photographs. This will destroy all the information needed for recovery, as it will be replaced by the new images data.
By the way, feel free to share the coupon PHOTOGRAPHYTALK. It's valid for two more days (midnight GMT/UTC). Idea is to promote both the program and PhotographyTalk (hint, the coupon name
)
