I have an Olympus Stylus 1000 Camera. My 2 year old daughter erased all the images (approx 200) on the last day of our vacation.

Olympus reccommended your service to me. I therefore followed the instructions and downloaded ZAR 8.2 and followed the prompts.. It recovered the 26 pictures that were taken after the week's worth of pictures were erased.

My question: Is there a way to recover the erased images. I did the first scan using the camera and my USB cord. I have a 1GB FUJI XD picture card.

Thank you for any assistance. Debbie

If the run completed without any apparent error message, I don't think there is anything we can do further. Certain camera models erase data permanently during format, so that images deleted one-by-one are recoverable, but not after format.

You may want to post the entire log file (C:\Program Files\ZAR\logfile.txt in the default install) here so I can look further into it, just in case we missed something (sometimes happens). The log of just a single run should be quite short.

Yes, I would like to give what you suggested a try. Anyway you can send me instructions on how to post the file to you?

Thank you.. Debbie

Open Windows Explorer
Navigate to C:\Program Files\ZAR\
In there, double click "Logfile.txt", - your default text editor will open the file
Select all contents and just use Copy/Paste feature to paste the text here.

Alternatively, email the log file to development@z-a-recovery.com

I have checked the log file you emailed and no good news.
it reads
Object count : JPEG image 26
and that's it.
There is nothing else of importance on the card. Sorry but no luck this time.
