Hi everyone;
Need some help. Not sure if this is the right forum, but here goes. Just came back from 9 days over in Portugal (Azores) . Used both my D700 and my D800, and happy to have both. did not keep count, but looks like i have over 10,000 shots.
On my D800, on one of my new Lexar 800X (32GB) compact flash cards, after shooting about 80 - 100 shots, I got a card error - "Card Not Formatted". Now, very, very first thing I do when I put in a card is format it in the camera - even if it is brand new, and double check it. Sadly, this is one case where I did not have an SD card in place as a backup. It was near the end of my trip, and I was running low on all my memory cards. Samsung high quality SD cards can be found in a couple of stores in Sao Miguel, but compact flash cards are as rare as an honest politician, so if you go over there, take lots of card with you,.
Anyhow, there is a ton of software for card recovery - but almost too much. Any reccomendations on what software to use, because I don't want ot blow it either.
Many thanks in advance.
