camera lost data
i have a canon 5.1 MGPX and a kingston memory card. i turned on the camera and I should have 200 photos on it and it says I have 0 taken. The photos have been wiped and i didnt format the camera.
what free software can i try to recover it. I took 2 photos after this happened and they have appeared as normal and i have only 2 photos recorded.

I would say yes, if the files do not open even after they have been recovered, then the memory card most likely suffered a physical failure, and the data is gone. Those utilities really only are able to recover data that was deleted by accident, not stuff that was lost due to failure.

what settings do i use to look for files and how do i open these jpg's as this is not working. does this mean they are damaged?
