    Sometimes seen lurking on the compers forum :-)
  • I'll check out Recuva, but for reference I have used DiskDigger in the past (also free) when I needed to get some accidentally deleted photos off of a digital camera's memory card.

    Always interested in hearing about new deals for cameras/lenses, cheap flights/holidays, and video games. PM me if you have any I haven't heard of!
