When I got home I put the memory card into the reader, it's saying I must format the card. I put it back in the camera to check it and it says the same thing. Is there any thing at all I can do to try and get my photos before I reformat? 7D / 40D / 70-200mm 2.8L / Tamron 28-75mm 2.8 / 50mm 1.8 / Canon 85mm F/1.8 / kenko 1.4 / 580ex

A few times I have pulled the card from my canon DSLR before the camera was shut off and the card would not read on the computer. I put the card back in the camera and turn it on, then off. Then I turn on the camera and take a picture and shut off the camera and remove the card and the computer would read the card fine. I don't know why, it just worked! In another instance I had to wire the camera directly to the computer with the supplied cable, with the card in the camera, to see the files on the card. Good luck. This has happened to me as well http://www.flickr.com/photos/81190407@N08/

I also encountered a similar problem, I use Recuva to recover data after formatting the memory card MY website http://veryphotography.com
