Went to my camera store. They tried to do a disk recovery. NG :(
Funny thing is the following:
I was able to veiw the 14 old pictures I had left on the disk thru the veiw finder of the camera. When I put the card in a card reader I saw more photographs which included some I thought to be missing. The funny thing is there were say 6 copies for each of the new photos I was trying to see that were shown on the computer and not on the camera's veiw finder.
So in the end all photos lost and now have to convince my wife I was actually at the JLMBH.
Anyone willing to testify for this Irishman in a Sicilian Court.
I'm wondering if I tried to pull the card out while the camera was on? This could have also been the cilprit.
