Hi

I recently bought a Kingston 512 compact flash card. I had a few probs with it, with the odd file becoming corrupted. I upgraded the 20D firmware to 2.0.0, and took it out for a final trial. Was horrified when I got back to discover every single shot had been corrupted. :cry:

I checked during shooting and the pics were all there. But once I put it in the card reader, all the shots came up black with a question mark. When put back in the camera, to try uploading that way, it just says 'corrupted data'.

Anyone know of any 20D incompatibity with Kingston card issues, or have I just got a duffer [card]? Not had any probs before.

Does anyone know any good data recovery software? :cry:

Bad Copy Pro

but first put it in the card reader and do an 'errors check' as if it were a hard drive. The chances are this will recover the files
