Recover Professional Digital Camera Photos
High quality images can be captured using professional digital cameras or DSLR cameras. It is for this very reason that professional photographers make use of DSLR cameras to get the best shot possible. The captured images have high resolution, which provides seemingly better clarity of photos. The DSLR cameras technology is a combination of good blend of optical lenses and some cutting edge sensor technology.
However, data loss is something that is not new in case of DSLR cameras. Since data storage in a DSLR camera is usually on a flash memory card, recovery of photos from the memory card is the essential part in this type of photo recovery. But there is a slight difference between recovery of photos from low end digital cameras and recovery of photos from professional digital cameras. This difference is with respect to the file types that have to be recovered.
Most DSLR camera manufacturers make use of customized file formats for saving the images which are captured using that particular camera. For example, photos taken using a Canon camera are saved in the CRW or CR2 formats. This means that a RAW image recovery software should be able to recover photos of as many formats as possible.
Photo Recovery Software (Mac) makes recovery of RAW image files an easy task. This Photo recovery software supports recovery of photos of different file types like NEF, SR2, SRF, ORF, MRW, CR2 and CRW. The software also provides a preview option, using which you can preview the recovered file before saving it.
You can follow the steps given below, to successfully recover all the lost/deleted photos from the digital camera.
Step 1: Remove the memory card from the camera, and connect it to a healthy PC where the software has already been installed. Launch Photo Recovery Software (Mac) by selecting it from the application folder. The main window pops up as shown in Figure a.
