Anyone got any clues out there.....when the SD card is in the camera the screen says full (which I understand to be correct as I filled the SD card with shots). When I view on the camera it says "no files exist"

On the PC the folder shows as empty and no images.

Any ideas for free software download to recover the files. One minute they were there, next they were gone

HELP...please

Is it a trusted software or would I be better taking it into the likes of Jessops or N.E Other photo shop?

Have a Google for "Recuva" from piriform. (No, they don't do anti-allergy products before you ask! ) That's a great freebie for recovering files from cards.

I'd probably try that, or ZAR mentioned above, see what you can retrieve from the card, if anything, then format it in camera and start again.

Has the card been used in anything else? Always a good idea to format a card in the device it will be used in when you want to clear it of its contents.

Hope that helps.
